Dragonfruit Spritz sits on the 'Top Shelf' level from Native, with cherries sourced from the famed Finca El Paraiso. It benefits from a double anaerobic thermal shock process together with a roast profile to produce a sensory combination of dragonfruit, raspberry, rose candy and cream. Think of the mouthfeel of crisp champagne, but with the aroma and taste of rich raspberry and subtle dragonfruit.
