Ivan Brant 4.5

Nose: Pear, vanilla, and cereal. Palate: Rich, with hints of burnt match, apple, pear, toasted oak, beeswax, and honey. The finish is light and tannic, with prominent apple, pear, baking spices, and slightly bitter oak.

Claire Mcdonnell 5.0

Woody spice and silky sweetness create a fantastic combination in a well-designed bottle. So many great memories with this one.
