Definitely more spicy than sweet. I can appreciate it, but it's not a favorite. I like more oak and it doesn't really shine.
2nd Tasting: I'm getting the sweetness now. It's a dark sweetness with some woodiness and dried fruits. I think I kinda love it. Glad I'm able to taste from a friends bottle & still keep my sealed. Still can't believe my note is the lone wolf on here. Has nobody else really tasted it?
I'm saying goodbye to my bottle. Found a trade I couldn't pass up. I'm getting a George T. Stagg 2013!!!
