old rip van winkle 10 year 2022 release

Nose: caramel and strawberry, almost like a freshly popped can of the powdered strawberry nestles quick. Little bit of pie crust but mainly fruity red berries and caramel. Its nice and inviting. Near the end of the ounce the nose continued with the berry and sweetness, i envisioned like if you popped a few smarties in your mouth but on the nose. Its nice. Body: thin to medium Palate: initially a little peppery, cinnamon, caramel, a faint woodiness almost like the smell of fresh loose leaf paper but if you put a corner of that paper on your tongue. Its faint but the woddiness is there. Finish: first sip of the day so maybe a little biased but this was unexpectedly long given how easy this was to sip. Long primarily with caramel and red berry but also a little puff of tobacco leaf. Not bad. Note: a taste from don. Not my first go round with wizard pappy but its been a while since i last enjoyed. Another dram i wished i had a few more ounces to really dig into but this was light and sugary sweet. Fun and easy going.
