*Gold Medal* from the International Review of Spirits, and 94 points from the Beverage Testing Institute: "Pale golden yellow color. Sweet prune, coconut cream, vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, and nutmeg aromas. A firm, round entry leads to dry-yet-fruity medium-bodied palate with toasty coconut, sweet prune, and brown spice flavors. Finishes with a long, sweet and spicy fade of cream and ashy minerals. Remarkable purity and character." (8/2006)
