Tasting Notes

Nose

As the color suggested, this is strongly aromatic, serving up notes of hearty buckwheat honey and charred vanilla sugar. There’s a hint of nail polish remover and shoe polish that leaps from the glass alongside notes of toasted pecans. On the fruit side, I pick up aromas of stewed yellow peaches and overripe nectarines. Spice aromas include allspice, clove, and dried bay. There’s a touch of a high-toned floral note like wild daisies and sassafras leaves. The aromatics are surprisingly fresh.

Palate

The palate’s notes are milder than the aromatics on the nose, showing a hint of ripe peach but mostly baking spices and old vanilla pods. Swirling the spirit is like having a wrestling match with a burning log. Besides, the finish and retro-nasal notes are far more interesting than letting this melt a hole through your tongue. It evaporates with a bitter lingering note like chewing whole spices, burnt honey, and cedar.

Finish
