NOSE Spiced apricot-heavy dried fruit, honied nuts, caramel, smoke, cinnamon, brown sugar and citrus peel with a touch of cardamom. Elegant, this aroma is just plain elegant. PALATE Nutty, slightly jammy, malty, honied nuts, smoke, leather and some candy sweetness with a bit of dried citrus peel. I want to say elegant again, but I feel like I’ve covered that. So I’ll say it’s graceful. FINISH Med-long -> Smoke, nuts and candy-sweet fade to dry fruit leather.
