Dark golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of freshly baked cinnamon roll, hazelnut, cashew, and tonka bean, candied orange, and coconut cream with a round, dryish medium body and a long finish displaying touches of sweet grass and sweet mint, tonka bean, vanilla salt water taffy, cinnamon and sugar roast nuts, and black walnut.
