Gold color. Aromas and flavors of vanilla toffee, sweet hay, maple nutmeg praline, and pipe tobacco with a round, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, amusing, medium-length finish displaying notes of caramel praline, walnut paste, leather and sweet pipe tobacco, and maduro cigar ash. Lovely flavors of both grain and barrel but there is something a bit youthful in here as well; regardless, this is delicious.
