Tasting Notes
"A rich, malty nose is sharpened by a whiff of burnt lemon peel and spice. Zesty notes of ginger and lemon lift up the medium weight palate, which has elements of rich pipe tobacco smoke and book binding leather. A note of earthy mushroom adds umami depth to the finish, which is filled with sharp ginger spice and orange peel. "
