Tasting Notes
Ripe blackberry, bramble jam, seedy tartness, dark berry, slight earthiness, hedgerow fruit. More tannic and jammy than raspberry. The seed character adds texture that other berry liqueurs lack. Deep purple-black color. The Bramble float creates a visual gradient from clear to deep purple.
