Quality & Sensory

Each batch is naturally dried to preserve its deep amber-brown color, wrinkled texture, and concentrated fruity aroma. The dried fruit feels firm and slightly leathery to the touch. When decocted or steeped, it releases a mild, subtly sweet and faintly tart infusion with a gentle fruity fragrance, yielding a soft amber liquor that is easy to drink.
