"The snappy, zesty bouquet is clean, tart and refreshing, then in the latter stages the astringent presence of lemon peel really comes alive. Palate entry is like lemon drop hard candy, sweet but pleasantly tart; by midpalate, the tartness accelerates becoming more astringent and refreshing with every sip. One of the best limoncellos to come my way in a year or two. Best Buy." 90-95 pts.

"Sophisticated and delightful aromas of tangerine and rhubarb. The palate entry is delightfully citrusy and sweet; the midpalate phase offers just enough herbal bitterness to balance. Ends up refreshing, orangey sweet and delectably herbal. This deserves to become a popular pre-dinner quaff." 90-95 pts.

"The nosing passes find distant scents of honey, baked bread, and corn meal. The palate entry is pleasingly balanced and not the least cloying; at midpalate the flavor profile features integrated tastes of honey, spice and lemon zest. Finishes clean, balanced and very enjoyable. The citrus element nicely counters the honey and the bourbon." 85-89 pts.

"Attractive foggy pink/rose color. The bouquet is highly perfumed with intense fragrances of orange peel, passionfruit and mango pulp, with a backnote of spice. Entry is lusciously tart and fruity, displaying an ideal balance between the alcohol base, acidity, and fruit. Finishes impeccably balanced, clean and juicy. Bravo!" 96-100 pts.

"Brilliant burnish amber color. Aromas of honey, chocolate drizzled dried orange peels, wildflowers, and nutty whisky follow through on a gentle entry to a moderately sweet and viscous medium-full body with buckwheat pancake, rye cracker, and peppery spice accents. Finishes with a nice malty breath of whisky and mossy wet stone minerality. A supple, generous, and pleasurable after dinner treat." Gold Medal.

"Vanilla pudding, marshmallow, and toasted nut aromas follow through on a supple, satiny entry to a glycerous medium-full body with a touch of pepper and wet stone minerality. Finishes with tingling golden marshmallow and peppery spice fade. Will be very good for mixing."
