Merchant's description

Not shy. Not delicate. This is wonderfully excessive in flavour and typical of its origins. One might say "loud" tropical fruit meets equally loud, warm, toasty oak in an exhilarating fashion. This will remind you of the 1990s but without the rough edges. Wonderfully full and smooth. Think Lenny Kravitz in slippers!
