Golden brown in color, it’s very likely that caramel color has been added to 2 Gingers so that it doesn’t look young and pale. The nose on 2 Gingers is a nice combination of fruits with apple, pear, and lemon combining with apricot and peach. Behind that are some pleasant sweet notes including caramel, vanilla, and honey, backed with a slight ginger spice. The entry for 2 Gingers is light and sweet featuring honey, caramel, malted barley, and green apple. Things transition quickly in the midpalate where 2 Gingers picks up some spice with black pepper, allspice, ginger, and a touch of eucalyptus. From there things get a little tart and acidic with the green apple re-emerging and combining with sour lemon for a fairly acidic and hot finish. The finish is of medium length, dry, and a little hot.
