Each bottle is uniquely distinguished by a hand-strung beaded amulet around its neck, crafted by local Kenyan artisans to support community income and independence.

On the palate, it delivers a smooth, full-bodied mouthfeel characterized by a lush fruit core and soft, dry tannins that provide an approachable structure.
