What do reviewers say about By the Fireplace and Sparkling Tamarind?
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
The Coca-Cola note is why you pick this up. And it delivers, not as a gimmick, but as the genuine article. Tamarind brings the tart-sweet counterweight that keeps it interesting.Sparkling Tamarind
