Tasting Notes
"The nose is a mix of freshly picked green apples, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg and toasted oak. The palate hits richer notes of milk chocolate mixed with candied apple, clove, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, and allspice. A hint of roasted peanut drives the slightly tart and toasty finish that brings more heat. A large ice cube tames some of the heat to draw out the richer flavors, tartness and fruit. "
