Braeden Felix 3.0 October 2018

The latter part of the bottle was superior to the initial portion. SMWS accurately captured the tasting notes once more. This spirit is undeniably salty, with a subtle hint of plum concealed within.

How the score is built

3.00 is the plain average of 1 review.

The 3.73 score we rank by pulls that average toward its category until enough people have weighed in, so a handful of glowing reviews cannot outrank a thousand steady ones.
