FTLOP 18th Anniversary; 11/17/2023-11/19/2023 (Seattle, Washington): Bottled in 2023. Amber-orange in color. Its aromatic profile features grilled pineapple and guava notes. The entry is rich and intense, and the palate evolves into a remarkable flavor spectrum of dried nuts, dried herbs, caramel, and honey. It has a harmonious balance with vibrant acidity.

Tropical notes of grilled pineapple, caramel, and hazelnuts on the nose. Intense rich palate with complex tropical fruits, burnt sugar, and extremely well-balanced acidity.

Guys' Port Weekend - July 2022; 7/15/2022-7/16/2022 (Boulder Creek, California): Bottled in 2021. Amber-brown in color. Caramel and burnt sugar on the nose. Rich, sweet flavor profile with vanilla cream, caramel, and a smooth round mouthfeel. Very long, rich finish.
