Tasting Notes
"The aroma begins with hot fumes that carry a big bouquet of vanilla. The palate has some heft from its oily texture and strong mineral flavors. Underneath these minerals is a soft layer of vanilla and a splash of fruit. Despite the bare minimum ABV the alcohol seems to warm everything involved. Pour this over ice and it is lighter and more refreshing."
