Tasting Notes

Nose: Tart autumnal robust fragrant berries. Hints of rose and spicy aromatic undertones, lifted by zesty cirus.

Palate: Juniper lead, a lovely pink grapefruit note dances on the front of pallet, followed by a smooth, creamy and herbal yet somewhat jam like full body.

Finish: Decadent Dry finish with tart berry and alluring peppery notes, even when consumed with a sweeter tonic or mixer.

Perfect serve: Enjoy with Elderflower tonic and grapefruit peel, or if in season, locally forgaed wild berries. Alternatively, as part of an Elderflower Collins Cocktail when the mood takes your fancy!
