◌ Aroma

Black tea and bergamot aromatics lead, layered with soft herbal and floral notes that suggest Earl Grey without mimicry. Beneath runs a clean wheat base with hints of citrus peel, restrained and inviting rather than perfumed.

◐ Taste

Tart acidity frames the palate with precision, allowing bright citric notes and delicate tea tannins to unfold without sharpness. The wheat base provides body and smoothness; bitterness is minimal (10 IBU), letting the herbal and floral character dominate the mid-palate and linger into a crisp, refreshing finish.
