light spice, fruit and rich aromas of vanilla on the nose. More vanilla on the palate along with some heat and caramel apple. Oakey finish, that doesn't stick around too long or provide a lot of heat afterward. Decently oily, the richness of the flavor comes in the finish. A fine dram as they say, slightly below average perhaps and nowhere near the traditional heavy hitters. At the price a decently complex flavor but I won't be rushing out for another bottle
