Tasting Notes
"The nose is like whole grain toast with peanut butter that's had cinnamon sugar sprinkled over it. The palate is rich, viscous, and almost creamy, with milk chocolate covered cherry sweetness mixed with roasted nuts, aromatic spices like cardamom, cinnamon, sarsaparilla, allspice, and ginger. The finish is fairly mellow considering the proof, but it drinks quite rich and on the heavy side, with spices lasting on the palate. "
