ABOUT
This one is an original of mine. I love any time I can combine pineapple and coffee. The process of making the pineapple distillate captures the essence of a pineapple in peak season, with all its succulent, bright, and juicy notes, but without the sweetness. Averna adds that bittersweet, herbal layer that ties it all together, and a touch of salt makes every flavor pop. Cheers y’all!
