Juniper goes in at three stages: macerated for three days, added again in the copper pot still, and vapor-infused through a Carter Head, so the flavor hits with maximum intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose shows pine and cedar with a hint of zesty orange. The palate is rich and full of juniper, backed by warm spice and a touch of dark chocolate, and the finish is long, slow and dry.
