Tasting Notes

A wonderfully broad-ranging nose of bees wax, herbal tea, pear, lime, lemon zest, stone, spice and wood toast merges seamlessly into absolutely stunningly intense, concentrated and borderline massive flavors yet for all of the size and weight, there is no sense of heaviness. There is a seemingly endless reserve of dry extract that really coats the mouth and imparts a sappy character on the powerful and hugely long finish of knockout persistence. The word remarkable would be an understatement.
