Nose: pine sol and craft glue, sour pear candy, sake, maybe some new wood resin-y stuff. Clementines in the can. Musty honey at the back of it as it opens up. Could have some sweet almond going on.
Palate: Full and round, sweet at first but drops off to a shallower spiciness, some malt as well and lingering floral notes. Vanilla, and surprising bit of bitterness offsetting the malty sweetness. Can see the green apple note everyone mentions.
Finish: Light and a little spicy. Sort of grassy too.
Overall: I think it’s pretty great for the price! I’m surprised it’s so cheap and it’s nice that it’s 43%. Smooth enough, but not so smooth it’s boring. Has a nice spicy kick. Could be a good one to have around since it’s so affordable.
