The nose is a symphony of sweetness: vanilla frosting, toasted nuts, maple syrup, toasted coconut, brown sugar, and baking spice. A little orange peel adds a nice citrus zest. On the palate, those saccharine flavors remain, but they’re balanced by the richness of bread pudding and cinnamon swirl bread. The finis is of decent length and made quite decadent by cacao nibs and cocoa powder.
