Tasting Notes
"The nose resembles the character of sour cherry and chocolate fruit cocktail bitters flavored (tart stone fruit with a tinge of booziness) with additional aromas of roasted peanuts, nutmeg, and allspice. The palate starts out rich, chocolatey, and somewhat fruity with substantial viscosity. An earthy tone of walnut skin and tart cherry enters the midpalate, however, the finish, while rich and nutty, is also quite hot and spicy. "
