Nose: Apple turnover with a nice helping of cinnamon sugar and a touch of cloves. Apple cider vinegar. They serve toasted pineapple cakes in every French restaurant. Which is both delicious, and tragic as Sascha is allergic. Cedar closet. Man this smells pretty great.
Palate: Fruity, funky, and even a bit estery. Pencil shavings and diesel. Canned mango and yellow peaches in syrup. Clove hard candies. Allspice. Guava jelly. Some of that edge makes me think of Marc without going all the way.
Rating: 8 / 10 – Definitely going to appeal to the rum crowd. Reminds me the slightest bit of a calmer appleton hearts 2002. Hands down a great pour. I’m a yes.
