NOSE
Honey, baking spice, roasted malt, leather, citrus peels, figgy sweetness and Honey Nut Cheerios with some dried orchard fruit, raisiny sweetness and a touch of toffee and cocoa.
It’s not heavy, it’s more fresh and breezy, but not in a light and wimpy way. The notes are delivered boldly.
PALATE
Honey, cinnamon-heavy baking spice, buttery pie crust, leather, dried strawberries, Honey Nut Cheerios, toffee, dried orchard fruit and a bit of oak and raisiny sweetness.
Like the aroma it’s soft and velvety, not heavy at all, but it manages a wonderful multi-faceted complexity.
FINISH
Medium-long -> Dried orchard fruit, Honey Nut Cheerios and oak fade with a light leather and strawberry candy sweetness.
