Nose: cheery pie filling Taste: up front is a flavor bomb of sugary fruit. Cherries, blackberry. Then astringent spice notes of vanilla bean and cinnamon. Similar to regular stranahan's, but with darker sweet notes in the background. Finish: found the finish to be long but fairly light. Some walnut goes in and out. Sherry notes of dried fruit. Vanilla. Random notes of intense fig. Batch: 005
