How It Tastes
From the first sip, the cup is bright and expressive, with juicy blackberry sweetness leading the way. A squeeze of fresh lime adds a lively acidity that feels crisp and refreshing rather than sharp. As it settles, a delicate raw sugar sweetness creates a smooth, lightly syrupy texture.
In the aroma and aftertaste, soft florals and hints of marzipan sit gently in the background. The finish is long and warming, with subtle mulled wine spice and lingering sweetness that carries between sips.
