Ten High has an amber appearance, which was darker than I expected. The aroma is of wood, char, caramel, dried flowers, and a touch of dry, candied fruit. Taste is of charred wood (stronger than expected), dried fruit, a bit of light brown sugar, some straight alcohol, and some corn. Mouthfeel is somewhat heavy, and Ten High does linger, in the finish, but it's not cloying. A good deal for $9.99 for a 750 ml bottle.
