All the Makers Notes with a high proof. Very good.
Nose - honeysuckle, sugar cookie, brown sugar, caramel.
Taste - medium viscosity, caramel, vanilla, orange rinds, cherry. Heat hits mid palate.
Finish - some heat lingers, oak, sweet flavors from taste, more citrus in finish.
My scale:
1 - I’m giving this drink away
2 - I’ll mix it, but doesn’t stand on its own
3 - Enjoyable, but I’m willing to try something new
4 - Very good, If it’s on the shelf or menu - I’m buying
5 - Greatness Achieved, this drink is worthy of collecting
