Tasting Notes
"The power of this spirit starts with gentle and refined approaches before going for the drop. Bold vegetal notes mix with lemon, lime, vanilla, chocolate and chili pepper on the nose. The palate takes a double turn first into fruit and then into savory, introducing roasted pineapple mixing with roasted nuts, and even some tinges of beef broth and malty beer. The finish is surprisingly dewy and sweet, with subtle baking spices. Considering the hefty proof, the burn hardly pins you down, though some ice would even out the concentration of flavors. "
