Here are my tasting notes for my very first bottle of this offering which I opened today:
Neat-
Nose: Honey/cinnamon melange, syrupy, rich, pungent cantaloup, beach sand, Quebec maple tree sap, smokey raisins and vanilla bean metamorphosing into a vanilla ice cream sundae with honey biscuits served in a barber shop.
Palate: Creamy, flash of spicy to sweet, smooth and rich, spicy maple syrup, cinnamon-oak notes, mild pepper and chocolate mints (after Eights anyone).
Finish: Long, hint of bonfire smoke, spice, creamy and an oak canoe paddling in "honeyed" waters.
A lovely dram which does not disappoint. The nose opens like the passage ways of a great pyramid, one at a time with a purpose in mind. Well-balanced and refined right to the end. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."
