750ml bottle. Poured a clear golden color with a small fizzy white head. Aroma was some ginger and a touch of flowers. Ginger isn’t dominant like in the Gingeroot, but this one does retain a bit of that kick. Touch of floral on the finish. Delicate. Alcohol is prominent, so it is really a sipping beverage.

From standard clear 750ml bottle. Poured a mostly clear yellow color with a quick, short lived fizzy wispy head. Aroma is a touch of smoke notes - not quite meaty, but more like a light campfire note - funky notes to it - someone said blue cheese, maybe that’s right - but since I don’t like blue cheese, I didn’t really pick up on that one. Touch tart lemon zest. Nice apple character, some woody notes. GF really liked it, which I didn’t think she would.
