Nose: Soft floral and herbal aromas lead into sweet layers of honey, caramel, and light citrus, with just a faint, surprising whisper of peat smoke
Palate: A smooth and light-bodied mouthfeel carries gentle flavors of crisp apple, pear, and creamy vanilla, balanced by mild oak and baking spices like cinnamon
Finish: The experience concludes with a soft, medium-length fade of lingering sweet candy, honey, and a touch of dry woody spice.
