Snow Capped JalaPEARno offers a vibrant sensory interplay between the delicate, floral sweetness of Colorado Bartlett Pears and the bright, vegetal zing of fresh Jalapenos. The aroma is dominated by the green, peppery snap of the peppers, yet it is quickly softened by the lush, orchard-fruit perfume of ripe pears. On the palate, a balanced sweetness from the Bartlett Pears provides a smooth foundation that carries a low to moderate jalapeño heat, prickling the tongue without overwhelming the subtle fruit character. This Specialty Perry finishes remarkably clean with a lingering warmth and a whisper of spicy capsicum.
