This fun blind courtesy of @trentoniousmaximus was tasted blind, neat in a glencairn
Nose- red delicious apple peel, cherry pie, Swedish fish, wheaty funk, cherry peanut brittle, cherry coke carbonation
Palate- sweet but drying on the mid tongue in a delightful cinnamon oak tannin way. Big red cinnamon gum, orange bitters, this has notes that strongly remind me of an old fashioned.
Finish- I really love the finish here, I got smacked in the mouth with apple and cinnamon, also getting some rich spicy Latakia pipe tobacco leafs
My official score was 78/100 or a 3.9
I was surprised when @trentoniousmaximusmaximus revealed the result of the blind!
