Tasting Notes
"Peanut brittle, toffee, and caramel lead on the nose, along with malted milk balls, cloves, and nutmeg. The palate is rich and chewy, with more nuttiness in the form of walnuts, pecan pie, and honey nut Cheerios. A lengthy finish continues along the same track, offering handfuls of salty-sweet trail mix, barrel char and oak tannins, orange zest, cherries, chocolate, and fresh mint."
