I’m not sure I got the best out of this cup. It was a little bitter and unbalanced before I added some creamer. This might be one that I have to fuss with the steeping parameters on. Once the cream was added the flavors improved. The sip is brighter. Light butterscotch comes to mind. The finish has more depth, a little malt and the butterscotch becomes heavier, almost caramel like. It has an aftertaste similar to MF’s Wedding Imperial. I’m liking this cup, but I’m not crazy about it as is. I’ll have to look up the Wedding Imperial steeping parameters I favored and try it on this one next time I have it.
