Review and Tasting

Sampled on 07/05/2012

Appearance:

Clear, mid golden amber with bright golden highlights.

Aroma:

Biscuity vanilla with sherry, overripe fudgy banana and furniture polish.

Taste:

Lovely nuttiness emerges (brazil nut, almond) over a fruity (green apple), vanilla cereal grain base. Faint peatyness.

Aftertaste:

Nuttiness lasts through the long lightly smoked finish.
