The dry leaf aroma is a fruit salad explosion! Peach, tangerine, banana, mango… it’s wild!

The wet leaf however is a complete contrast, leaf liter, Forest floor, wet burnt wood, spicy.

The liquor promises hints of apricot, is thick, viscous and syrupy, and light in color.

Intriguing!

The burnt wood, lingers mildly in the back of the palate like a fond camping memory.
