OPTIMIST Smokey – Spiced Botanical Spirit (500ml)

This Zero Proof spirit has a smoky, spiced, and complex finish. Smokey is a liquid ode to the stillness of the High Desert at dusk - vast sunset skies darken and focus shifts to the flames of crackling fire pit. Distilled with Lapsang Souchong (smoked black tea), bitter orange, clove, sage, rose geranium and habanero, it delivers layered notes of smoke, floral, citrus, and a gentle warmth with a long, earthy finish.

Seasonal Serves: With warm or cold apple cider (1:4) or in a zero-proof riff on an Espresso Martini Seasonal Pairing: Pair with glazed ham or seared duck breast, or a mushroom Wellington, roasted root vegetables or a crisp winter slaw, and long, cozy afternoons.
