This is in its prime and ready to drink, but can be enjoyed in fruit-fading phases for another 6-8 years. Bouquet of peppermint hard candy, basil, and Creme de menthe. Complex flavors and finish featuring numbing mint chocolate cherry liquor waves that transition over a couple of hours after pnp to more ground coffee tones with a long earthly harmony ... though the nose retains an Asian-spiced sweetness.
