Wow. This is weirder than I was expecting. Pretty color, but the taste was unexpected.
Nose: bright apple skin, vanilla, caramel
Palate: Cooked apple throughout, but comes on much stronger on wood. First oak..then kind of spicy rye..then smoke.
Finish: Apple cider and smoke. Lingering.
Verdict: I prefer the Laird's single barrel at this price point and for the fuller apple flavor, but this is a lovely novel little sipper. Might not get again, but is fun this time.
