Nose
Pretty fresh and vibrant with lovely sherry influences, cherries, mandarines, raspberry, and light cinnamon spice.
Palate
Sherried with hints of cracked black pepper and cinnamon, stewed apples, soft citrus zest, tobacco leaves, dried fruits, and menthol. Oak is noticeable but not distracting.
Finish
Spicy and mentholic, short to medium in length, with lingering spice and mature oak.
