Aromas: Bright fruity entrance, with citrus (orange) blossoms, and a light note of wet gravel. Mellow oak and barrel spice - a pleasant vanilla/cinnamon combo.
Flavors: Rich vanilla, leather and almond cream - lending a round mouth feel. Some hints of cherry. Assertive cloves, cinnamon and a blast of black pepper make this interesting.
Finish: The profile is a touch sweet for my tastes, but walks the tightrope on the peppery side so as to balance things out.
Mx release from 2010. 35% ABV. $220 pesos.
