Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is filled with the scents of exotic flowers, vanilla, and soft citrus accents that are presented in a subtle and delicate manner. The palate echoes the nose delivering a a floral-driven core with notes of mineral, soft grain accents, and vanilla bean. Medium-bodied and super delicate with just a faint sweetness that lifts the botanicals giving it a soft Gin-like quality. $42 – 4 Stars

Brilliant, golden amber color. The nose is filled with the scents of banana cream with supporting notes of caramel and hints of Whiskey and charred oak. The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering sweet bananas roasted in brown sugar, honey, and banana wafers with accents of Whiskey and vanilla. Full-bodied with a lush, silky texture and loads of tropical fruits and sugar. $29.99 – 3.5 Stars
