Nose: Most noticeable were the rum notes, coconut, mild spice, bright, slightly pungent bite on nose at bottom of glass. Notes: not vecoious but soothing texture, complimentary spice and honey note. Crisp Finish: Not as much a tongue tingling as stinging (but damn I'm all about it.) Hits all throughout the center of the tongue. Front to back but heaviest near back. Overall: $49 purchase and took a risk off a suggestion. Money well spent. I could sip this on any occasion.

Nose: Top of glass is fruity transitioning to bright woody notes, similar to a newer rickhouse with lots of ventilation. Bit floral at the bottom. Overall very diverse and clear nose. Big fan on the introduction. Notes: Fresh and crisp, great balance of baking spice on back end. Allspice? Finish: delightful tip of tongue. Soothing warmth on backend. Summary: highly recommended for brighter but complex breaking. Offers a lot at a low proof. Highly impressed.
