Nose
Rich malt with honey and apple juice; just a bit of oak. As it sits it gets a bit acidic (lime peel). With time there's pastry crust and biscuity notes. The honey expands with water and the whole gets richer.
Palate
Malt and honey and apple juice here as well but there's more oak than on the nose—not tannic, just gives it a bit more bite. The fruit turns muskier as I swallow. Very nice, thick texture. With time the musky fruit, the malt and the lime meld and expand and it's all rather lovely. Muskier and sweeter with a bit of water.
Finish
Medium-long. The fruit expands and then fades out leaving prickly oak behind. As on the palate with water.
