Look for a topaz hue and rich, bold aromas of sarsaparilla, vanilla bean and orange peel. The palate opens with sweet smoke, cocoa and espresso, finishing with juicy orange and clove heat. Adding water unlocks more spice, yielding a dark gingerbread or spice cake character. A complex and interesting sipper. Kara Newman聽
