Tastes

Nose: Surprisingly good! Light, lemon and apricot, grass and honey. Nicely tart, almost too sour, but not quite. Taste: Demerara sugar and spice, light lemon and sugar cookie. A hint of bite in the middle, with a long slightly sour finish on the sides of the mouth, a hint of bitter at the close. This could be outstanding, except that it was watered down to 40%. Shame!

Nose: Apples! Strawberry, very slight vanilla, deep spices over the oaky base. Almost no alcohol, fresh grass. Taste: Caramel, sweetness and then sharp green apples, bitter chocolate and mild burn.

Color: Medium caramel brown, trending to golden straw at the edges, infinite legs with a thin coat. 9/10 Nose: Sorghum and apples, dark wood and leather with a tannin roundness. Nice old oak notes and a hint of tar. Fantastic! 9.2/10 Taste: Lemon and leather. Thick and creamy with a coating burn, slow build to a glowing tobacco and spice heart, really old oak structure fading slowly to a peppery finish, nice and long. Stays on your lips! 9.4/10 Overall: 92
