What do reviewers say about By the Fireplace and Cherry Syrup?
Built for the hours you want to stay in. Not the ones you need to leave. The smoke leans Intimate, warm, woody, close. It doesn't fill the room. It earns it.By the Fireplace
This isn't a quiet cherry. The saffron and rum open loud, the drydown refuses to rush. If you're looking for something that plays it safe, keep scrolling. Cherry Syrup wants to be remembered.Cherry Syrup
