Bright, bold, and bittersweet, the Paper Plane opens with citrus zest and spiced bourbon on the nose. On the palate, it’s smooth and layered, with sweet lemon upfront, a core of herbal amaro, and a warm bourbon base that brings everything together. Its texture is silky and full-bodied with a lingering finish of orange peel, clove, and subtle rye spice.
