Tasting Notes

Nose

Alcohol up front. Subtle at first, but opens dramatically after a few minutes. Lime seltzer, baked apple, cinnamon, raspberry jam, almost no oak presence at all. Loads of dark fruit make up the body the nose.

Palate

Thin and delicate mouthfeel. Subtle sweetness initially reminiscent of maple candies followed quickly by floral and spice notes. Stewed apples in the skin baked with cinnamon sticks, holiday fruitcake, almost overwhelming nutmeg and clove late.

Finish

Continued floral and spice notes late in the palate through the early finish. A late flash of a burn followed by a flood of sweet cream. Lacking in significant depth.
