Nose: Wintergreen lifesavers, wood, peach rings, dates, clove hard candy, rhubarb, even after resting the nose is intense and hurts with an underlying acetone note. Bougainvillea.

Palate: Oak two by four covered in herbal to the face. Hot hot wood. Lip curling. Tape. Black tea and tobacco pushing into kombucha like experiences, cloves and black pepper. The mouthfeel of sichuan chili oil.

Rating: 5 / 10 – big brash and intense. Fun to go to a bar with once, but would be old quite quickly.

Nose: Fresh cut maple, toasted pecans, pralines and cream, dry hay bale, creme de violette, wool sweater, welchs grape juice, white tangerine.

Palate: Buttery, farm funk, vanilla bean, sponge cake, mint pillows

Rating: 6 (Ryan) 7 (Shane) / 10 – really rich and lovely palate with a hint of funk
