Leather | Vanilla custard | Summer fruits | Citrus | Cinnamon spice | Interesting & inviting with minor flaws

Werther's Original | Butterscotch | Toffee | Maple sugar candy | Clove | Aged oak | Layered flavors with a medium-bodied mouthfeel

Brown sugar | Caramel chews | Tobacco | Leather | Black pepper | Sweet to spice then back to sweet again, lingering
