Nose of dusty crackers, Band Aids, wisps of something vaguely smokey.

 

Palate... hmmmm... well it's kinda sweet and kinda soapy. Then dried lighter fruits like apricots, and... well now it's finishing and among other things there's some soapy stuff here that's just not doing it for me. And it's the longest-lingering part of the finish, which turns me off from wanting more. Drinkable but not desirable.

N: soap with wax and toasted oats

P: soapy, lavender and paraffin

F: short finish with black peppers
