The Appearance: Deep, glowing amber-caramel hue with rich clarity and a slow, leggy cling on the glass.
The Aroma: Intensely aromatic, wood-tinged, and complex. Opens with high-toned notes of fresh orange peel, grapefruit, and tart pomegranate, backed by earthy wormwood, mountain pine, and warm mace spice.
The Palate: Elegant, structured, and well-balanced. Deep botanical bitterness from cinchona and gentian coats the tongue, offset by pomegranate sweetness, vibrant malic acidity, and a subtle electric tingling heat from Timut Sichuan pepper.
The Finish: Lingering, complex, and pleasantly bitter, leaving a persistent trail of dark citrus, pine resin, and warming spice.
