Has anyone ever used this before? I'm looking to try something new with a Christmas ale I'm brewing in a few weeks.

We've used a couple different flower waters (mainly rose, a couple others I'd have to look for a brewsheet) in a saison we made this year. I think we used a total of 4 10-12oz bottles. The floral was definitely precipitable and I've heard complaints about it being "too floral", although I don't find it "perfumy".
We have a 7 BBL system and we added the water in the last 5 mins of the boil.
One thing I'd be worried about is the orange blossom being a little stronger.
