Nose
Delightful bouquet of lactic notes, grains, smoke, honey, and green apple. Also, orange blossom, earthy oak, floral, and orchard fruit.
Palate
Harmonious blend of lactic acid, grains, smoke, green apple, honey, orchard fruit, salted-caramel-coated biscuit, greengages, vanilla, caramel, and subtle oriental spices.
Finish
Lingering sweetness with notes of green apple, smoke, and a touch of alcohol warmth. Medium length, rich in vanilla, smooth, and pleasantly warming.
