Distiller: N/A

Bottler: Soul Boxer

Brand: Soul Boxer

Selection:

ABV: 30% ABV

Age: NAS


Nose: Sweet, cloyingly so. Sugar, orange, peppercorns. Spicy clove, cardamom. Lots of sweetness here, and a faint bitter component, reminiscent of Angostura.

Taste: Thick, but sweet mouth feel. Lots of orange, honey, confectioners sugar. Heavy mulled spices, fake bubble gum note. Really heavy on the spice, lightly similar to Angostura.

Finish: Short, no heat, super sweet.

Overall: Neat: no. Rocks: no. Cocktail: yes. This is super sweet, and serves about a single purpose in my opinion. I hoped it would be fun on the rocks, but the sweetness is just overpowering. Blended with a tart citrus drink and ice, this is nice.

Thanks for reading!
