Tasting Notes
"Balmorhea is a beautiful mahogany in the glass. The nose is spicy, well laden with cloves and cinnamon along with a leathery earthiness. The palate is fiery and hot, with cedar wood, spearmint, vanilla Tootsie rolls and caramel-toffee reminiscent of Werther's hard candies. The lengthy finish showcases more leather and spice, as well as cigar box and menthol."
