Tasting Notes
"This unaged spirit is uniquely aromatic: lemon meringue, whipped cream, orange peels, and hints of fresh cut grass, peach, and honeydew melon. Pleasantly hot and full-bodied on the tongue it has brilliant flavors of sweet grass, stone fruit, and juniper with the lemon-cream and orange peels. Drinks more like an eau de vie than a grappa with layer upon layer to discover on the finish. Drink as a digestif. "
