Aroma is bright, lots of apricot with an undercurrent os smoky molasses. First taste: lots of mellow fruit, a definite lightness in the taste buds, but solid mouthfeel. Smooth, without being bland. Solid lingering mid taste, really stays longer than you'd expect from the fresh high notes. Some spice, emerges quietly towards the end, staying in the back of the mouth and throat. Never gets too hot, but it stays for a long lingering stay. This is a definite keeper. It may not be a favorite, but it's irresistible at this size and price.
