Tasting Notes

 

Aroma

Warm vanilla and pineapple with subtle notes of toasted oak and spice.

Palate

Smooth, full-bodied, with bold flavors or ripe cherries, dark chocolate, and subtle undertone of honey.

Finish

Lingering warmth, leaving traces of cinnamon and black pepper complemented by sweet oak.

We don't chase medals, but — it's nice to earn 'em.
