Taste
A delightful cup that boasts a medium body, offering a silky-smooth and well-rounded experience.
With each sip, a gentle honeyed sweetness harmonizes beautifully, enriching the palate from start to finish. Delicate floral nuances reminiscent of winter blossoms greet you at the onset, gradually unfolding to reveal vibrant hints of stone fruit at the heart, imparting a refined complexity to the brew.
Bright citrusy accents and refreshing winter-green notes adorn the edges, gradually mellowing into a subtle, sweet finish that lingers delicately on the palate-an elegant and distinguished taste of the Blue Hills in winter.
