Maple Leaf Spirits Pear Williams

This is my 100th Distiller review. I wanted to try something a little special for this one. I came across this distillery when trying to find Kirsch, and decided to order 5 bottles of their offerings. Their pear Williams is made from 100% distilled Okanagan pears. This is the first review of the five. Nose: The ripest pear you've ever smelled. White pepper. A funk that took me a while to realize was the exact smell of rendered pork fat. Good but not amazing. Palate: Oily mouthfeel. Slightly sweet. An explosion of pear. Hints of Pinot Grigio. The pork fat also comes through but in a good way. You feel like you just ate a quality pork chop with a side of pear sauce. Getting better here. Finish: Surpsingly lengthy. Dries up completely and you're left with floral, almost perfume notes. It's the essence of pear blossom and just stays. Spectacular. The finish brings this from a 3.5 to a 4.25 for me.
