Tasting Notes

Nose

Opens with aromas of the fall: sweet caramel corn, hay, and baking spices. The aroma is moderate in strength and quite appealing. As it opens in the glass, floral notes unfurl into fresh rose and geranium.

Palate

On the palate, it opens more savory than the sweet aromas would suggest. There’s a meaty character like rare roast beef over more notes of sweet caramel and butter toffee. The mouthfeel comes off as peppery with a gentle astringency. I enjoy the lingering warmth and buttery caramel note which morphs into a hint of herbal bitterness on finish that is quite pleasant. With a dash of water, the aromatics take on a maple sugar and cola spice note. This is quite pleasant.
