There’s sugar and spice on the nose: there’s cinnamon stick, gingersnaps, gingerbread, rum cake, Necco wafers, and a zesty zing from fresh orange slices. Red Hots coat the mouth, though once the heat subsides there are gentler flavors of warm cinnamon babka and Cinnamon Roll ice cream. More of that cinnamon spice on the finish, which leads with lightly burnt cinnamon sugar toast.
