Nose
Candied orchard fruits, honey, vanilla, toasted cereals, and a hint of mint and green notes. Some sources also mention dried peaches, apricots, and a subtle oak spice.
Palate
Sweet honeyed cereals, vanilla, and lemon citrus, with a distinct oakiness and warming spices like pepper and nutmeg. Some describe it as light-bodied with notes of orange peel, peach, nuts, and gingerbread.
Finish
Medium to short, with lingering notes of bitter oak, honey, and dusty pepperiness. Some detect citrus, black pepper, and a touch of sweet peat.
