Tastes

Nose: big time vanilla, brown sugar, a very subtle green apple, and burnt sugar note bordering on caramel. There’s a touch of acetone, but it’s not detrimental Palate: light body, sweet upfront. Palate is greeted with burnt sugar/caramel, peppery rye spice comes on mid to back of the palate, subtle leather notes across tongue Finish: the major flavors finish fast, but the rye spice lasts. Touch of char on the boquet.
