Nose - honey, apple juice, grape, raisin, whiff of smoke, orange, oat, white wine, subtle nuttiness, moderate ethanol burn.
Taste - honey, oat, sweet caramel, vanilla cream, raisin, light smoke, orange, hay, apple, grape, cereal, walnut, moderate to high alcohol bite, finishing fairly long with caramel, apple, and honey flavors.
The flavors are deeply rich, sweet, and satisfyingly balanced. It’s a bit hot, but the heat suits the experience. It’s a similar profile to the Classic Laddie, but succeeds where the other comes up short.
