The dominant note is supplied by Nepèta's namesake ingredient, falling on a spectrum between mint and oregano. The flavor profile is rounded out by balsamic and citrus notes from the local wild herbs and lemon and underscored by the interplay of bitterness and subtle sweetness. Can be consumed neat with a chill, over ice, or in numerous variations on classic cocktails.
