Nose: apple juice, lemon zest, hint of oatmeal as a base Palate: almond, apples, honey Finish: surprisingly long, crème brûlée, touch of allspice and nutmeg Overall: fruity with a pleasant surprise of complexity, especially on the finish. Squeezes everything out of its proof plus more. Complex enough to think about, enjoyable enough to let it be a background drink. Really liking this after having the bottle open for nearly 6 months. 7 on the t8ke scale
