I recommend this with a small ice cube. It's gotta a ton of burn that benefits by proofing it down ever so slightly. Pours a dark caramel/orange color. Spindly spider legs go all the way down. The nose is first of all, just a ton of heat: all sixty percentage points came to play. Dusty peanut/nutty aroma. Prickly sawdust and barrel spice; orange peel. There is a hint of plastic. As it opens up, caramel and toffee bloom. The burn hits the all levels of the palate, and it sticks on the lips and singes the roof of the mouth. It also burns all the way down. You get a taste of spicy orange peel/Potpourri, then spice akin to rye/cinnamon. The prickly spices manifest as ribbon candy. The corn/corn syrup smooth out the end. Then heavy oak and finished wood emerge at the swallow. The finish is a continuation of the oak char at the swallow, which is rich and dark; sawdust. The finish is dark chocolate, along with a spicy spiced-orange candy; cloves. The barrel tannins are extra metallic the longer you let it linger. For $42 or whatever it was, this is a very good value. It definitely benefits from dilution,and even a half-pour will get you where you need to be on a stressful Bourbon call.
