Medium light gold color. Aromas and flavors of tangerine and peach, sour gummi worms, orange marmalade, and canned pineapple with a velvety, crisp, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, interesting, long finish that presents notes of orange, mixed citrus and lemongrass, pineapple juice, and apricot and coconut. An American Single Malt with vibrant tropical fruit tones that while tasty enough on its own will truly be a star and show off its bold fruit flavors and over proof strength in Tiki applications; tiny umbrella optional.
