There was enough ginger spice to keep me interested, even though the bitterness felt one-dimensional. Still a good pick and one I'd have again.

Opened the bottle alongside salty snacks. It opened with fresh citrus, then moved into floral edge without losing balance. One of the more enjoyable options I've tried in this category.
