TASTING NOTE
Bright, light amber color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of caramel, oak, and five spice with supporting notes of ginger biscuits, orange blossom, and marzipan. The palate substantially agrees with the nose delivering a malted barley-driven core with flavors of orange peel, vanilla, honey, and baking spices. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and nicely balanced with an oily texture.
