Nose: Lovely bourbon barrel nose. Candy store sweetness with tropical fruits and icing sugar. Not very complex, but lovely if you have a sweet tooth .. eh .. nose.
Taste: Medium body. Rather peppery delivery here. Also a fair bit of toasted oak. Big and boisterous in character. Lots of orchard fruits and trpical fruits.
Finish: Medium long finish. Remains very fruit and big. The spices dissipate and we’re left with sweet harmony.
Comment: Yummy and juicy.
