Nose - I get ethanol, dark chocolate, and cherries to start. Palate - Very nice initial spice. Slight oak taste. Nice cherry note that I almost missed. Finish - Smooth going down: only slightly warm on the throat. Tingles the tongue. Minor pepper finish. Mixed With Coke - Great Taste! Mixed over half bourbon to coke and was still incredibly smooth. Little bit of cherry taste available in the coke.
