Nose: Fresh, ripe quince dominates with bright notes of apple and pear. Subtle floral hints of rose petals and honey mingle with a zesty citrus undertone. The aroma is clean and inviting, capturing the essence of freshly cut quince.
Palate: Crisp and lively, the quince flavor bursts forth with a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. Tastes of golden apple, pear, and lemon zest dance on the tongue.

The higher proof is noticeable but not overpowering, carrying the fruit flavors beautifully.
Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering quince and citrus notes. The finish is pleasantly dry, with a subtle tannic grip reminiscent of green tea.

The eau-de-vie base provides a warming sensation that doesn't overpower the delicate fruit flavors.
