Nose: sweet oak and caramel, very soft but bright, like orange peel Taste: starts off very light, almost like lemon peel, then oak slowly builds in a medium wave, then settles into bit of spicy black pepper or anise, then fades back into a smoldering oak. Relatively light and simple overall, but a pleasant ride Finish: a delicate finish that lingers for a while, mostly bitter oak and a bit of cinnamon spice
