Tasting Notes
COLOR: Vibrant rusty orange with honeyed edges.
NOSE: Rich caramel, dill, granite, some vanilla, thick and dusty wild herbs and grasses, all taking me way back in time to memories of Gold Rush era California buildings made of stone, thick rough-cut timber, and grainy, earthen, improvised cement.
TASTE: A prickly pepperiness on creamy layers of caramel, vanilla icing, fresh taffy, dill, rye grasses, dusty oak, chocolatey fudge.
FINISH: The peppery tingle, caramel infused with the herbal elements, dense chocolate fudge.
