Tasting Notes
"Robust aromas of whisky-soaked cherries, dark fruits, and strawberries, meld with rich, dark chocolate-drizzled hazelnuts, hints of dry hay and toasted oak. The palate speaks of Christmases past at grandma’s house with notes of old furniture, smoked cherry tobacco, homemade fruitcake and butterscotch pudding, with grainy cereal notes and hints of fennel on the tail-end. There is a lot of big oaky and savory elements that string out in a sexy, lingering finish with spicy ginger, white pepper, fennel, grilled pears and wisps of peat smoke. "
