Manufacturer's notes: Take your senses on a spice trade journey. Exotic and fragrant from the combination of saffron, cardamom, and coriander. Hints of brightness and citrus, with a pleasant earthiness from the lemongrass and cinchona. Turmeric adds depth and complexity. Enjoy it neat, over ice, or use it to elevate and energize your favorite cocktails and highballs. My taste: 3.12.22 Served: Neat, Flute Bottle Open: Same day (on shelf for 2.5 years). Aroma: Plastic, rubber, and grass clippings when still. Swirling evokes slightly fresh notes of lemongrass and marjoram. There is some more herbaceous complexity beneath, but In can't pick it out from all the plastic. Flavor: The plastic is still there, but now more complex flavors are evident. Bay leaf, marjoram, saffron. Light cinnamon and allspice. Overall not happy with this one, but very confused by the plastic nature. I'll be searching out another bottle to try just in case this one is defective. So far, even 1/4oz destroys every cocktail I've tried this in as well. Liqueur Strega is a better source of saffron at the moment.
