    Real talk

    Deep Red doesn't play coy. The blackcurrant is tart-sweet and unapologetic, and the ginger keeps it from cloying. The heart is where things get interesting, but the real star is that warm, creamy.Deep Red
    This is spicy. Not politely spiced, there's real candied ginger heat here that doesn't let up. But it's anchored by floral sweetness and wrapped in vanilla, and it lasts well into the evening.Ruby Red
