Tasting Notes

Nose

Cinnamon and dried blood plum — cherry, anise, pepper, ginger, the year-long maceration creating extraordinary depth

Palate

Full-bodied — soft tannins, subtle acidity, sweet berry and warm spices, rose myrtle and hibiscus creating cascading layers, licorice, cinnamon, pickled plum, dried fig, and ginger, a Vietnamese fruit gin of remarkable complexity

Finish

Tannic fruit and woodsy spice — the year-long maceration providing depth that no shorter infusion can match, sweet and warming, a Vietnamese masterpiece

Expert Review

8/10

Vietnam's answer to sloe gin — rose myrtle berries and hibiscus buds macerated in gin base for one full year, with black cardamom, citron, and hạt dổi seed. Cascading layers of tannic fruit and woodsy spice. Lightly sweetened with rose myrtle and sugar. Evocative of sloe gin, sorrel, and light amaro.
