It’s been a while since I sat and tasted (drank, for sure, but not tasted). Amassed quite a bit of samples that I really need to work. Starting the long weekend with this sample provided by @dubz480 and one that I have been looking forward to as I like Speyburn: affordable, decent taste and quality and relatively accessible. The color is light golden yellow, similar to Golden Raisins. A fruity nose starts the journey with a mix of orchard and dark fruits. Apples and pears with plumbs, raisins, black cherries. A walnut or pecan quality exists faintly in the background. As more time passed, the nose sweetens with butterscotch and milk chocolate with a sprinkle of lemon zest. Soft and sweet. It arrives soft, spicy, sweet almost simultaneously. The softness is as silky and creamy in a medium body. Ground cinnamon and ginger provide the spiciness. The sweetness comes in the flavors of fruits: Concord grapes, applesauce, vanilla, butterscotch The finish is drying and slightly oaky with lemon oil, grape skin and a sprinkle of cocoa powder all lasting a fair length. A dram with a good aroma, subtle sweetness and spiciness that is inoffensive, enjoyable yet complex enough sip and enjoy slowly. Maybe even as a summer sipper. Thanks @dubz480 I will seek this one out. [87/100][Tasted: 5/24/19]
