Tasting Notes
"This is very spicy (cedar, cinnamon, clove) and floral. Some notes of golden apple and vanilla come through, but the spice is very stabby. It's funny this is labeled the "gentle dram" because, gotta tell ya, I'm not conjuring images of warm, fuzzy bunnies and meadow song while sipping this. Tastes kind of youthful for its 14 years."
