Tasting notes

Appearance: Clear, brilliant, with silver highlights. Nose: The aromatic palette reveals an interesting complexity combining fruity and floral notes, with accents of grapefruit skin, orange blossom and mandarin peel, accompanied by earthy nuances of petrichor and damp earth, as well as more rustic touches of burnt wood and charcoal. Palate: The attack is moderately full-bodied, with measured alcoholic integration and moderate acidity. The texture reveals a medium body that gives way to pronounced flavours of tea, mugwort and wood, accompanied by a remarkable saline and peppery dimension. The finish is surprising in its gradual transformation from marked astringency to a gentle, soothing warmth, leaving impressions of candied fruit and herbs in the retronasal. Overall impression: A spirit with a raw, rural character, seductive in its authenticity and assertive personality, despite some rougher aspects.
