Use this accordion (or the product metafield theme.tasting_notes) to share flavour profile, body, acidity and sweetness. For example: "Notes of dark chocolate, toffee and dried raspberry. Medium-heavy body, low acidity, syrupy finish. Pairs beautifully with milk drinks but holds up clean as a black filter."
