Tasting Notes:
Aroma: Ripe pomegranate, followed by a swirl of rich vanilla, roasted coffee and butterscotch. Strong earthiness, accompanied by notes of orris root, spearmint and freshly baked sour apple.
Palate: Juicy, with crushed pomegranate grains, dried figs and a bouquet of spicy-sour herbs.
Finish: Long and dry, with a hint of toasted oak, followed by sourdough pretzels with a side of red fruits.
"Plums and red berries show first on a rich and inviting nose, along with butterscotch and vanilla. The palate offers raspberry syrup, anise, and dark chocolate atop a heavily floral and perfumed base with violets, lavender, potpourri, and honey. A hot, lengthy finish has tannic oak, barrel char, and dark chocolate covered berries." - Jake Emen, Distiller
