Hugo Spritz

With Salads, Hugo Spritz has enough floral, herbal and refreshing to hold its place beside food. It carries a lean, light body and feels light in strength. Compared with Flaming Lamborghini, it leans more bitter. This makes it useful for comparing how liqueur behaves in a mixed drink rather than tasting it neat. The index points toward Salads or Soft cheese at the table; Flaming Lamborghini is the nearest place to continue exploring.
