From an old bottle released 10+ years ago not so. Plenty to love if a little tired, lots of flavor just lost a little of that acid snap!

Super aromatic: toffee, caramel, sawdust, roasted nuts, salt/brine, shortbread, orange peel. Off-dry with butterscotch, ginger, 5 spice, vanilla, and smoke singing on the palate

Figs, raisin, spiced orange, and honey. M+ intensity. M+ acid, body and finish. Nutty. Complex and awesome!

So many delicious flavors that you could list them for hours. Burnt caramel, coffee, dried apricots and toasted nuts come to mind. Long, deliciously balanced finish.

Semi-dry, very rich, nutty, gorgeous acidity. The historical series is a super cool concept.
