Maltiply Tasting Profile
Nose
Honey and chrysanthemum with floral tea and beeswax— a bit like a floral scented lip balm, gentle with a soft mineral undercurrent, moss and the fragrant greenery of an ornate garden, tea cakes with lavender and blueberry, high tea with honeysuckle.
Palate
Medium to light, austere and delicate at first, chrysanthemum and red tea with a kiss of smoke, dry leaves, wood shavings— a wood carving studio— waxy fruit skins emerged amongst the herbal with orange and tangerine rinds, funky fermented herbs toward the end with a rising waxiness.
Finish
Medium to long and drying with slightly waxy fruits and floral tea.
