It has an aromatic birth with notes of grain, wood, fruits, nuts, herbs & spices; while a rich & bold life adds notes of peach cobbler drizzled with melted vanilla ice cream and a pop of tart cherry, citrus, apricot & butterscotch; that led to a long & warm death with notes of oak, pepper, cinnamon, ginger & milk chocolate.

Flaviar Advent 2025 #13. Clear golden body thin legging. Bready toasty woody aroma. Bready toasty woody vanilla earthy flavor. Medium body moderately heavy warming. 8/4/7/3/15 3.7

Definitely cherry and string citrus of orange and lemon zest, little butterscotch/ caramel, sweet and little apricot out some type of fruit

Beautiful golden amber color with butterscotch on the nose. Amazing flavors layered with butterscotch, cherry and a soft spicy finish.

Reminds me of Balconies, that sage brush flavor. It's fine. Nothing special, and nothing to seek out.

Orange and butterscotch.
