Tasting Notes

"There’s caraway, black licorice and touches of orange peel, followed by a whiff of vanilla. Overall the nose is fairly herbal. A minty arrival on the palate, combined with oak, some grassy notes and some very subtle red fruits, but also more of that black licorice. Tasty, yet a little shy at times."
