Decent blend that is enhanced by the lemon peel and cloves. Not particularly complex, but quite tasty and easy drinking. The base whiskeys are soft, with light vanilla, mild tannins, and a nice cherry note. Very floral nose. The flavors come through nicely even when cooked (used it in cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving). Not usually a fan of flavored spirits (or liqueurs), but this whiskey is very pleasant, and is perfectly executed. I think they produced exactly the spirit they were shooting for.
