Stone fruit, strawberry ice cream bar, lemon peel, and a touch of grassiness make for an appealing nose. Creamy vanilla comes forth on the palate, which is hot, hot, hot, but not unpleasantly so, as it’s tied to notes of candied ginger and peppery spice. With water (which is definitely recommended for this one), the flavors expand considerably, revealing more vanilla, white pepper, and ample chocolate. The finish is splendid, rife with crème brûlée sweetness, graham cracker, and mocha.
