Tasting Notes
"The nose is floral and fragrant, with lavender, vanilla, grass, hay, and all types of underlying fruits, such as raspberries, peaches, and apricots. The palate is oily and mouth-coating, with more vanillins, fruits, and floral notes. A touch of heat starts the finish leading into rose water and lychee, with citrus zest and black pepper. A final bitter note is the only knock keeping this from excellence. "
