Nose: Apple tree in bloom, kombucha and cider vinegar. Cigar tobacco vibe, licorice root.

Palate: Intense oak bomb. I feel like a termite. High proof but the alcohol only plays on the finish. Concentrated plum along the dr pepper spectrum. Almost a pepto bismol sweetness. I rarely say it’s too much, but tonight it’s too much.

Rating: 5 / 10 – timber.
