Honey-gold, topaz color. Really beautiful to look at. Leaves a thick collar around the sides; the thin legs take a while to fall, but they do, slowly. The nose is vanilla and coconut, with thick honey. Mashed cinnamon apples. Malted barley and mildly sherried wood. Mint that comes off like menthol tobacco; mildly smoky and a bit sulfuric. The flavor is more honey, with just a touch of brown sugar. Malted barley and dry vanilla. Stewed apples and some resinous sherried woods. Spiced coconut and marshmallow fluff. The finish is cut tobacco leaf, with more of that mint/menthol stuff. The smoky finish is mild, like vanilla tobacco. There is an unusual note if ground cinnamon powder: not spicy per se, but dry. The surprising amount of smoke takes on an earthy quality, like soil or mud. The barrel wood is decidedly sherried. The very tail end has a metallic/tin component. The Singleton Luscious Nectar starts off sweet and fluffy, but finishes with a challenging coda. I may have slightly overpayed for it, but only by a few bucks.
