Tasting Notes
"The aroma is like apple and pineapple juice poured over wheat flakes cereal (in a good way). The palate is fruity and spicy, with flavors of caramelized apricots, tart apple, clove, and hot cinnamon with flavors of toasted cereal on the midpalate, The medium weight finish is a tad hot and quite tart, but carries the sweetness of fruit and flash of spice before it sizzles.
