Panda, courtesy of SHIG, pours with a mahogany colored body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up boozy caramel and other reduced sugars as well as the sherry richness of the barrel treatment and then fig and plum like fruity esters. The taste delivers smooth slick caramel goodness and sliding slowly towards growing booziness and the bourbon to whiskey like barrel treatment. Nice as it is well integrated with no sharp corners to be found. Into the finish is becomes a tad sherry like as the alcohol presents a pleasant warming of the upper intestines. Fun sipper.
