Tasting Notes:

Mouthfeel: deceptively smooth and creamy
Palate: Powerful with creamy texture, and surprisingly sweet with some salt. Some cocoa powder, toasted coconut, spearmint and menthols followed by aniseed and hazelnut nougat.
Finish: Long with considerable spice, Herbal with drying cedar and clove with black tea notes.
