Aromas of peanut shells, green apple, and tart red fruits upfront. Lightly toasted cedar and mild tobacco add nuance and complexity. Flavors on the pallet are sweeter than the aromas, led by roasted peanuts, caramel, and cashew.

The finish highlights some of the more complex spices including caraway, cinnamon, and hints of vanilla and honey-cinnamon.
