Santa Ana Florale is a captivating expression of 11 exquisite botanicals, with the iconic Ylang-Ylang flower at its heart. The original Santa Ana liquid has been enriched to better satisfy gin & tonic lovers, with more juniper and dalandan, a Filipino citrus fruit, while retaining its Ylang-Ylang notes. The result is a bold and voluptuous floral bouquet with every sip.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE A bold symphony of Ylang-Ylang and Jasmine, with notes of juniper and warm spices.
PALATE Lush flowers give way to soft tropical citrus fruits like Dalandan and Calamansi, supported by earthy Alpinia and ginger. The mouthfeel is velvety and sensual.
FINISH A lingering finish. It evolves continuously with a touch of spice and a burst of Angelica.
