Nose is surprisingly not overwhelming for such an insanely high proof. Very very sweet cotton candy smell, some oak, walnut, ethanol at the end. The walnut smell is more pronounced retronasally. Taste is extremely alcoholic, oaky, nutty, bitter needs a splash of water for sure. After a splash of water, burnt caramel, bitter nuttiness, almost ashy flavor, and a little orange citrus. Palate is very tingly, burning from proof, oaky and bitterness linger.
