Tasting Notes
"The aroma is more about leather and spice than fruit, though some does show up on the tip of your tongue as you taste. The barrel spices take over on the palate is quite tannic (rough) with a bitter and nutty flavor with a dry finish. If you are used to soft and sweet cognacs, this is not the brand for you."
