Mine is the 123.8 proof version. -Nose - rum, cherry, oak, slight burn -Taste - oily mouthfeel, quick heat, apple brandy, burnt caramel, later sips introduced a honey sweetness -Finish - medium warmth, port, oak, slight tannins linger from the cab This got better with every sip. At first the finish reminded me too much of a dry cab (not my style), but that gave way to a more nuanced blend of the port sweetness, cab dryness, and classic bourbon oak.
