Rich with citrus and sweet evaporated milk. The wood notes come in quick with a slight char and a nutty bitterness that is easily cut by the overall sweetness of the sip. Vanilla is there but it's more like a melted ice cream. Cinnamon and clove with more of an old wood spiciness. The finish is dry apple cider without the tartness and pine needles. While complex, I enjoy their other offerings at the lower price point (this is around $100/bottle when the coffey ones are $60).
