Chocolate and bituminous clay, warm bran muffin, with dark caramel, green peppercorn, shade-grown, green tobacco, amarula, pecan pie, and baked yam scented. Heat is suspended while crystallized coffee, rock sugar with cinnamon, vanilla and cane crystals texturally press forward. #kentucky #kentuckybourbon #bourbon #NoahsMill — 9 years ago

Really like this kimoto Junmai.
Smells like bran flakes with banana and milk with the merest hint of white peoper and ripe nectarine.
Complex mushroom and chestnut on the palate with a good dollop of acidity and umami. Delicious — 10 years ago

No one drinks enough old white Rhône. While not a great vintage, the wine was great. Lots of honeyed, nutty notes with crunchy bran, banana purée, Cabot cloth bound cheddar with an intense, lengthy bitterness (almond skin) and oily texture. The perfect cheese wine. Oak was totally integrated and supportive of the rest of the wine. — 12 years ago

Blackberry, anise, blueberry, bran muffin, black currant jam, toasted cocoanut and rosemary. Smells like a fruit bomb, but palate-wise it is a refined, structured and a shadowy powerhouse. Dried currants of all colors, powdery grapes, graphite dust, singed cinnamon, prune and a tar touch. Good. — 9 years ago

Pickled, salty, oceanic, smoked plum, bran muffin, soft caramel, a minuscule hint of fish oil offset by mint and bay leaf enveloping adhesive aromas. Full, burgeoning mouthfeel expressing lemon oil, coarse black pepper, oak, apple peel, baked pear, lemongrass, graphite, dark caramel, vanilla in a pointy finish with eucalyptus. — 10 years ago

This is probably one of the best Israeli Syrah out there full of sun flavor and power. If you seek elegance this boom is not for you :-) deep purple with a tiny touch of brown an amazing concentrated nose with bran yarn, ripe figs, ripe black cherries and plums, sweet cinnamon, cloves and vanilla, full robust chewy body, with rich tannins and a surprisingly rich acidity to keep the back bone of the wine and the finish is just looooong ;-) designed for a juicy porterhouse :-) my score 89, drink to 2019 — 11 years ago

Was going to bring this to Tom and Caroline's for the barbaque... Brought a 2009 Cakebread Cab and one of my recent favorites a 2004 Bran Caia... The Bran Caia just ROCKS; 50% Sangiovese, 45% Merlot and 5% Cab... You barely recognize it to be Italian... It is yummy!!! — 13 years ago

Sultana bran, fruit toast were super noticeable, not sure if it needed some more air because it was certainly unexpected usually these look so fresh and pure. There was some marmalade in there, either way I quite liked what it was showing — 10 years ago

Rich honey color with syrupy legs. Sherry, grass, wheat bran, toast, plum, lavender, cigar box, and honeycomb notes. Heat on the palate, but balanced. Additional flavors of toffee and vanilla in the background. Quite long finish. — 10 years ago

8.9

Chocolate-y brown nose, with malty coffee, caramel and a smidgen of maple and wheat bran. Frothy cappuccino head with sudsy lacing. Wooden, dark-toast entry shows a mousse of some finesse, a rootbeer type character that becomes honeyed, then bakers Choctaw, but always with a sugared black coffee playing shadow. Ends with an expansive, bitter kola nut hangs around to make interesting conversation with your taste buds. Her name is Caryatis, and her wooden demeanor should not be taken as a surly distillation of her character, but merely a symptom of the Sazerac she had for breakfast. — 11 years ago
