Nose
An ethereal top note of cherry blossom. Notes of green tea, citron and pepper briefly emerge as it quickly quiets. The delicate aroma quickly passes and dissipates.
Palate
Rich mouthfeel. Hints of cherry blossom early, easing into mid-palate leafy green tea with intimations of begramot and Earl Grey tea. Slight notes of peppery juniper. Bitter orange comes on late in surprising amounts, leading to impressions of vegetal wormwood.
Finish
Short and slightly tannic with even a touch of smoky nuance.
