Jungle Bird

With BBQ pork, Jungle Bird has enough bitter, tropical and fruity to hold its place beside food. It carries a lean, light body and feels moderate in strength. Compared with Fluffy Ruffles, it leans more bitter. The final impression is driven more by fruity than by simple sweetness. For context, its listed food matches begin with BBQ pork and Spicy food, and its related-drink path leads to Fluffy Ruffles.
