Nose: Wood, cherry, maple, clove, and a hint of pie crust. Taste: Sweet fruit and maple leading into a dark chocolate with some maple. Building throughout is a tanic wood that makes the sides of your mouth pucker and lingers after as a subtle nutty (character not flavor wise) wood. Experience: Your cleaning old furniture with a sented oil. This Maker's has a sweet and sour vibe for me, the usual finishing series notes show up but the heavy tanic wood isn't as heavy in most releases. I am really enjoying it but could see the finish pitting some off.
