Tasting Notes

Tart pomegranate aril, cranberry-adjacent acidity, light floral note. Ruby-red, jewel-toned color. Sweetness balanced by pronounced tartness — more balanced than most fruit liqueurs. Tannic finish from pomegranate seeds. Best versions show the fruit's complexity — sweet, tart, and slightly bitter all at once.
