Color: Medium Amber/Copper/Burnt Orange. Nose: Cinnamon, allspice, candied orange, brandied cherries, maple fudge, and heaps of vanilla. Full of bright wood spice tamed by sweet, soft fruit. Palate: Vanilla cream, maple, and toffee on the palate with prickles of cinnamon and chili heat. Bitter orange, grapefruit, and cherry add a layer of fruitiness. Finish: Wood and spices bring on warmth while the fruit and vanilla notes linger long.
