Distiller's Notes
The Douglas fir we use in Terroir comes from a forest in Mendocino, where it is harvested seasonally to help with fire abatement. California bay laurel grows abundantly in the hills around the Bay Area. We wok-roast the coriander we use in Terroir, which brings out an earthy aroma. Angelica and orris root balance the bright aromatics of lemon and Seville orange. Sage, Saigon cinnamon, cardamom, and fennel seed complete the picture, while juniper brings the botanicals together. Terroir is a forest in your glass with ultra woodsy notes of Douglas fir, California bay laurel, and a hint of citrus. Sage and wok-roasted coriander suggest hillside thickets, while angelica root and Saigon cinnamon evoke the earthy smell of the trail. Terroir is stunning on the rocks or in a Martini. It's also lovely in a Collins garnished with fennel, bay leaf, or whatever fresh herbs you have on hand. Its outdoorsy notes make for a perfect Bramble.
