TASTING NOTE
Brilliant, crystal clear. The aromatics are very intense, giving scents of candied citrus zest, coriander, mineral, and lavender with supporting notes of dried herbs, fennel, and grapefruit zest. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering a juniper-driven core with flavors akin to citrus zest, smoked herbs, juniper, and coriander. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and pleasingly balanced with an oily texture.
