Notes
-----
The color is a very dark amber, a sort of tobacco brown. The
nose is very distinctive, with a strong, rich scent of
prunes and brown sugar. The taste is amazing...dark brown
sugar, molasses, that hint of prunes suggested by the nose,
enough zing of acidity to prevent it being cloying, with a
rich, lingering finish. (And to be clear, prunes aren't a
big favorite of mine, but somehow the flavor mixes
beautifully with the sweetness.) It has a lovely, unctuous
mouth feel, and exactly the right amount of alcohol--just
enough to give it a bit of burn without overpowering the
flavor. I am really impressed with how delicious this is at
this price. I need to immediately go grab a few more
bottles. I swear, it tastes just like drinkable, alcoholic
cane syrup (and in case you can't tell, that's a very good
thing).
