◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent notes of crushed coriander seed, complemented by warm orange peel and subtle zest. Beneath these spice and citrus notes lies a soft, grainy wheat character that adds body without heaviness. The overall aromatic profile is clean and herbaceous, with no sharp phenolics or off-aromas.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and refreshing, with the spice and citrus notes following through immediately on the palate. The wheat malt provides a gentle, slightly creamy mid-palate without sweetness, while restrained bitterness (18 IBU) remains subtle and well-integrated. The finish is clean and crisp, with spice lingering gently on the tongue.
