Flavor profile

Floral aromas and hints of citrus and spice develop into plum, vanilla, honey and baked fruit. The finish is long and rounded.

Pairing & serving

Serve slightly cool or at room temperature with grilled meats, cured ham or firm cheese. Skip heavy chilling to keep the plum aroma expressive.

After opening & when to enjoy

Keep upright, tightly closed, away from heat and sunlight. The spirit is ready to enjoy and does not continue barrel aging in the bottle. After opening, aim to enjoy within about a year for the freshest aroma, especially as the bottle empties.
