Neat. Sample.
Okay, this is a light whiskey? This smells like MGP light whiskey. Rich butterscotch, toffee, chocolate - Heath bar essentially. I can’t find any info if this is a blend than contains MGP light whiskey but I am betting that is the origin of this smell and the crazy hazmat close proof. Little strawberries with powdered sugar. Slight tobacco. Honey and graham crackers.
Oily and hot. Intense. Cinnamon, pepper and maple syrup on the tongue. Transitions to an intense butterscotch that transitions to a massive blast of vanilla that then transitions even more to a straight honey on the long finish. Getting more tobacco on the finish now. My mouth tastes like a cigar now. That’s interesting. Hangs like a smoke on the back of the throat. Super long finish. Getting a bit more chocolate up front on subsequent sips. Little mint. Super sweet, puckering sweet. Getting some nuttiness on the finish now too.
Intense up front and intense on the finish. Finish lasts for days. I haven’t had a finish like this in a long time. Enjoying this sample but I don’t think I could handle more than an ounce at a time.
