Tasting Notes
From our Chief Tea Taster
Aroma
Earthy, unripe tree fruit, burnt wood, smoky with undertones of red berries.
Appearance
Dark Amber
Taste
A full-bodied liquor with an earthy sweetness interlaced with vibrant notes of tropical tree fruit and undertones of burnt wood.
A pleasant level of astringency comes around from the smoky and firewood flavours which percolates through the length.
Overall, a smooth cup brimming with briskness and brightens the palate with a savoury aftertaste of red berries.
