Really unique. I'm still quite not sure if I like it or not. The nose is really like BBQ chipotle pineapples or peaches, then the taste is smoky brisket. It's not the same smoke as what you'd expect in an Islay or Islands scotch. I can almost imagine myself having this when I'm grilling outside. Big bold Texas flavors. Definitely worth trying, not sure if I'd buy again. Was interesting to try once though. Between this and their Balcones 1, I'd go with the latter. Given this is about $80, it's pricey...but you really don't have this flavor profile elsewhere.
