Copper color. Aromas and flavors of figs, chocolate powder, and rum raisin butterscotch ice cream with a glycerous, tangy, dry medium body and an interesting, medium-length finish with notes of caramel and vanilla, chocolate, pecan, and hazelnut, and maple and cinnamon pop tart. Something about this is just like the Scotch version of comfort food; it’s warming, delicious, and just right.
