Tasting Notes
"The nose is predominantly herbal and menthol, calling to mind Ricola drops, with a sulfurous and meaty backdrop, as well as vanilla wafers and stroopwafels. The palate showcases a phenolic range of asphalt, rubber and iodine, with a hefty dose of cream soda and root beer, and towards the back, an assorted handful of fresh-picked garden herbs. The finish is at turns creamy and zingy, highlighted by rooibos tea. "
