Eyes:
clear edge; bright shining pale golden light; very clear

Nose:
Honey; Thick, sticky honeydew melon that has been sitting in the sun ; very sweet definitely NOT spicy; light alcohol; honeysuckle; light springy white flowers; pear; cotton candy; mango hi-chew!; vanilla?

Taste:
Honey; thick and viscous; tart aftertaste with slight alcoholic burn; caramelized pears; apricot jam (maybe just because of tarte au poire association); mango hi-chew!; a bit dry
