Layered cinnamon in front, small amount of tobacco. Hints of vanilla and almonds give it a well-rounded profile of oak characters. Overall high complexity. Baking spices on entry. Small hints of clove. Toasted bread in mid pallet. Pleasant mouth coating, some sweetness in the mid-palate, and a silky smooth finish. Very clean overall, with some honey.

We only suggest that you allow her to shine, as she did while defending her theses of philosophy, mathematics, and women's rights to some of the most influential intellectuals of her time.
