Nose
Rich layers of vanilla, caramel, milk chocolate buttons, and buttered corn, with sweet oak char in support.
Palate
Layers of buttery caramel, soft peach, and apricot, with a warming touch of nutmeg and pepper mellowed by creamy melted chocolate and oaken vanilla.
Finish
Fruity with lingering notes of stone fruits, a touch of apple, more chocolate, honeyed almonds, buttery oak, and balanced peppery heat.
