• Cooked in a conical earthen oven & milled by hand with axe
• Fermented in a suspended rawhide sack
• Distilled just once using a hybrid ‘Filipino style’ clay & wood tree trunk still with a copper coil condenser
• Aromas of fresh leather, milk chocolate, red clay, dried cherry, and sun-dried tomato swing into deep roasted honey and tobacco leaf on the palate with faint notes of wet hay and barnyard lingering far into the finish.
