Rich and sticky on the nose, loaded with maple, brown sugar, turbinado, red grapes, tobacco, horehound, anise and decadent candied ginger.
Rich on the palate. Delightfully rich, layered, textured. Honey, buttercream, toffee, candied ginger, cracked pepper, some banana, pear and white grape. Touch of tar, slate, papaya funk.
Long finish. Mildly oaky, rich and full of maple, funky pear, more white grape, candied ginger and a crackle of pepper and light oak.
Masterful and complex, this is silly good and full of character. Nicely done Mount Gay.
