Tasting Notes
"The scent of fresh bing cherries mixes with sharp clove, cinnamon, allspice, and cedar on the nose. More of that spiced wood theme continues in a big way on the palate, as maple syrup, wheat breakfast flake cereal, and vanilla also hit the tongue. The finish has a surprising tart apple and plum note, with the spicy heat carrying through, with a bit of brown sugar sweetness. "
