Greywacke

This isn't your average "fruit salad" SB; it’s sophisticated and nuanced. Aromas of elderflower and passionfruit are tempered by a savory, flinty complexity derived from wild yeast fermentation. The palate is succulent and creamy, with a zingy lime-cordial finish that keeps you coming back for more.

Ideal for The Aromatician

You are drawn to "high-definition" ingredients. You love Thai and Indian curries, ginger, lemongrass, cilantro, and basil. You likely enjoy Earl Grey tea, lychee, passionfruit, and desserts flavoured with lavender or rosewater. You are the person who says, "This smells amazing" before taking a bite.
