167 reviewsSolid, largely agreed with Tyler overall. Red and other apple brandy notes are nice, the smoke is present but not distracting, there’s just a slight chemical edge to this knocking me back a half star. Proof would help show off this wonderful character!

574 reviewsFull-flavored Espadin at 42% ABV. There is a big red apple note on this one almost like an apple brandy. Fruit forward. Short finish and not very complex but still enjoyable. For $80/bottle I’d prefer a bit higher ABV. No batch info; this was a sample received in January 2021.
