The deep sienna brown colour with a gold ochre hue appears slightly viscous in the glass. Smells like ‘Chinnoti” with an attractive sarsaparilla / quinine combination, followed by hints of dried citrus peel. Viscous entry follows with reasonable intensity, becoming semi sweet at mid palate before finishing only mildly bitter.
