Nose

I do mean this is a good way; dank and moldy desert after a monsoon, and I’m all about it!

Taste

The flavor matches the nose but adds more to the party with some baking spices, black pepper, and crisp green apples which leads to a nice long, spiced finish. While this is interesting it is not overwhelming and I definitely dig it.
