Tasting Notes
"The aroma shows a sweet nose with vanilla, toasted bread and orange peel. It's got a soft, medium full body and the flavor profile highlights the toasty barrel spices. It's moderately sweet with the oak staves enhancing the proof more than what it is. Finish is on the short side, but it's got some milk chocolate and cherry notes which make it pleasant enough. "
