TASTING NOTES
NOSE: A vibrant bouquet of fresh citrus with delicate floral notes. The prominent juniper combines with subtle spicy touches and a light hint of cardamom.
PALATE: The onset is smooth and complex, marked by a slight sweetness balanced by flavors of lemon and juniper. Spices, including Saigon cinnamon, add lovely depth with a lively and tangy note in the background.
FINISH: Of medium length, the finish is characterized by crisp and clear citrus notes, supported by a balanced dryness and light earthy hints, leaving a lingering spicy impression. Tasting Tips: Saigon Baigur is best enjoyed neat, on ice to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity. It is also wonderful in a refreshing Gin and Tonic, garnished with a slice of lemon or a zest of Buddha’s Hand to enhance its exotic citrus notes.
