definitely let this sit too low for a bit too long but this beauty was a hard one to kill. Nose: sweet smoke, sea spray dark cherries, candied orange peel, sweet and earthy sherry. Dark honey (carrot or meadowfoam), a rich dark chocolate begins to emerge alongside an almost dark vanilla bean? Palate: Gentle, almost floral peatiness. A nice sea spray throughout the whole palate. Dark cherries appear here too, alongside the candied orange peel. I've gotten some apple from this before but not getting it quite as much here now. Finish: gently warming, dark fruits, a floral thread remains here too. Moderately dry, medium length.
