Nose: Orange barley water and banana. Draff and a tiny hint of smoke. The orange is really intense with cinnamon sugar.
Palate: Flat start, but the citrus bursts through before the spice crashes in. A little hot.
Finish: Very spicy with more heat. Then a bit drying before the peppercorn break through. Caramel bitterness.
Comment: So much to like, but its a bit hot and the bitter finish is unfortunate.
