Flavor Profile and Aroma:

Supporting those fruit tones are soft spiced whispers of coriander and a delicate sweetness of orange-blossom honey on the finish. The aroma presents a sunny orange orchard of zest and honey, undercut by a subtle wheat-bread grain and light witbier spice. Reviewers note the “sunny citrus zing with a hint of earthy spice.”
