Bright topaz color: unblemished clarity. Right off the crack of the aromatic bat, there's a high concentration of caramel corn, corn meal and breakfast cereal flakes: Secondary sniffs encounter subtle notes of dried berries, citrus zest, maple and vanilla bean. Entry is silky smooth, beany (vanilla, cocoa) and brown sugar-like: the midpalate is creamed corn sweet, caramel-like and filled with baking spices, mostly all-spice, clove and nutmeg. Finishes long, grainy sweet and nougaty. Another winner from Michter's . ****/Highly Recommended Spirit Journal June 2013.
