Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

Pretty burnt orange/rust color. Aroma is laden with baking spice piquancy, in particular, nutmeg and clove. Flavor-wise, there's a bounty of baked tropical fruits (pineapple, banana) that are heavily spiced with thyme, sage, parsley. The herbaceousness continues deep into the aftertaste.
