Smooth and subdued. Drying and somewhat bitter but slightly sweet. It's balanced but not all that exciting. Smoke and iodine with a strong cinnamon bite if you have too much at once. Too herbal. It's barely interesting once you get into it. I wouldn't want to drink much of it. The sweet cinnamon backing is kind of nice though. It's good. Nice strong richness despite the subtlety.

Aroma of fresh rain in a pine forest. Taste starts with pine and then you get pineapple in the development. Body starts out light and the finish gets dense and lasts for minutes. Just barely a hint of smoke. Flavors on the back end that I really cannot identify its so unique. Really opens up
