Bronze color. Aromas and flavors of paprika, resin, dark chocolate and cloves, orange peels, and cedar with a medium body and a medium finish with nuances of bitter grapefruit oil, marzipan, ginger candy, black tea, and ozone. Great body and a unique flavor profile make for a specific modifier for certain cocktails.
