Nose: walnuts, nestle cocoa powder, vanilla pudding cup, dusty cabinet, fresh cut woodpile and a lick of climbing chalk.

Palate: a very light palate, surprisingly so. The wood takes first position, but gently, with a light vanilla caramel note. Touch of sandalwood. A light bitter vegetal note, dandelion greens and the bite of lime zest. I have to listen intently to find much.

Rating: 5 / 10 – I wish they had gone for a hint more concentration. Maybe 46-50%? I feel like at this abv it’s lost its mojo. Its a perfectly acceptable pour, but nothing more.
