From a tapered rocks glass
Nose: Strong, heavy vanilla. Caramel sweets. Green fruit and grapes lightly envelope the nose. Remembrances of tropical fruits. Straw/Damp warehouse
Palate: Bright arrival with barrel spices right off the bat. Thick sweetness like brandy that persists on the palate. Malt sweetness with grapes and caramel
Finish: Sour barrel tannins
Adding water makes the malt and straw elements pop out. Water enunciates the spices in the palate
Very sweet pour
