Nose - at neck pour, very subtle smell of flowers/daisies, not much. Subsequent drams I got a lot more sweetness and apple, tingles the nose. Kenz says stone fruits
Taste - apricots and honey flood the palate and pulsating waves of flavor, neck pour wasn't as vibrant
Finish - neck pour was a short lived finish with not much to note, subsequent drams I got a vibrant and long finish with some fruity notes, honey, and spices
Score - 4.0, first pour on this was not good, gotta let it sit and BAM, it comes to life. Fruity fun mix on this one if that's what you're going for
Scoring Legend
5.0 - Outstanding, unmatched to others
4.5 - Excellent, I will always keep a bottle in stock if possible
4.0 - Very good, quite enjoyable to drink, can consider as a solid choice
3.5 - Good, would taste again
3.0 - Average
2.5 - Acceptable, still drinkable
2.0 - Inferior, able to drink but not enjoyable
1.5 and below—wouldn’t drink again unless I am desperate
