Tasting Notes
"Appropriately, the color of this liqueur resembles unadulterated iced coffee. On the nose, the heat of brandy leads, followed by hints of coffee bean and vanilla bean. Coffee notes are much more apparent on palate, and it’s clear this is not intended to be a sweet, dessert-style liqueur. It’s potent and brandy-forward with a touch of spice and underpinnings of a floral coffee flavor that lingers pleasantly. Drink over a large ice cube and in cocktails."
