Tasting Notes
"For a product that has spent a considerable amount in oak casks, this is surprisingly fresh and vibrant. The coriander and juniper still have room to shine, but there's hints of licorice, cloves and vanilla too. The palate is grassy, has a vanilla sweetness, and notes of dill and juniper too. A nice balance is achieved between the sweetness of the oak and the influence of the botanicals. Easy sipping."
