Tasting Notes
"The nose kicks off with warm cherry pie in a buttery crust, followed by graham crackers, kola, and vanilla taffy. The palate begins rich and sweet, with gooey dark chocolate brownies, and is backed up by a savory side showcasing meat roasted with an herbal bouquet. A lengthy finish offers pumpernickel hard pretzels, oak, white pepper, and salted caramel, along with closing notes of honey and dried fruits."
