NOTES:
Noses fragrantly af... Floral & bright & boozy. Sips to dancing flitting almost erratic/untethered floral and citrus bits. Dandelion and orange blossom honey sans the typical lower acidic Ethiopian berry vibe. Orange rind. Rather sour initially. Slurps in a less than crisp almost cloudy manner with the addition of a bourbon cask woodsy thing.

Finish intros some light salted caramel sweetness and ends surprisingly clean. Complex to the point of near clamor. Fun, tho -- not head-achy noise. Body is a bit thin & lacking in footholds for nuances. Flighty and frilly. A ditz of a blend which likes to laugh.

FINAL GRADE: B+
A 90-100 B 80-89 C 70-79 D 60-69 F 0-59
