The aroma was a tangle of floral notes, surprisingly soft sweetness and petrichor, with an essence that reminded me of rain water and earth. Upon tasting I was truly impressed with the initial gripping flavor of petrichor which was surprisingly potent and pleasing and I found myself enjoying the bold taste of minerality and soft floral essence until the following flavor of overwhelming honey and vanilla rose up like a tide of drenching sweetness. In that instant I went from indulging to put-off. I could have reveled in the initial tone but the following honey flavor, which is truly a pure representative of its moniker, did not appeal to me. Perhaps if the honey dominance was present from the beginning taste to the finale I could have been more open to its flavor but the initial leading taste of cooked agave and petrichor with its hard and fast transition to saturated sweetness did not appeal to me. The combination of flavors are dramatic in my opinion, and while I could imagine a certain crowd enjoy this expression, it doesn’t enchant my palate.
