Nose

What a nose! A fantastic harmony from the start.
Creamy vanilla and mild, sweet citrus. Then a well balanced, mild smoke. Clear floral tones and a little vanilla in the distance.

Taste

Sea salt and vanilla bean, soft caramel, toffee and a pleasant smokiness. Sensational! Summer all around!

Finish

Mild spices, and again vanilla, a little honey sweetness, but the smoke is in the distance. Long finish!
