Tasting Notes

"Salted caramel and milk chocolate lead off on the nose, along with peanuts and vanilla extract. The palate is rich and chewy, with maple syrup, barrel char, cassia bark, ginger snap cookies, cocoa powder, and black pepper. On a moderate length finish find rye spice, oak tannins and wood shop, cinnamon, kola nut, and cacao nibs."
