Producer Tasting Note
Nose: Bright citrus, Creme brulee, toasted rye bread
Palate: Orange marmalade, whipped honey butter on rye toast, with slight earthy biscuit-ey notes, finishes with sweet tobacco
Finish: A delightful ensemble that greets you with citrus marmalade, and falls to fireroasted hatch chili pepper and toasted rye bread. Moves onto a subtle, yet longlasting sweet tobacco that stays on your palette (think of a long draw on a rich and sweet cigar; bright leading into rich earth and dried fruits)
