A delightful liqueur. The nose is splendidly floral with notes of elderflower, lychee berry, and grapefruit.
On the palate the spirit opens up into a sweet berry affair. It features sweet notes of lychee, cherry, apricot, and a slightly tropical finish reminiscent of the grapefuit in the nose. The elderflower is almost lost in the sweetness of the drink. If anything it is more like an elderflower honey liqueur.
A delightful spirit that I'd pair with gin, a tequila, or perhaps a cognac when building a cocktail. It could also be excellent to do a St. Germain wash in a glass before building a cocktail, similar to an absinthe wash.
