Descriptor is right on. Nose is pit fruits and brown sugar. Sweet marshmallow cream leads the way with the fruit taking the back seat, followed by strong cinnamon spice and a nice heat in the chest. The spice brings a little bitterness with it, but that fades pretty quickly. Finish lingers nicely with the cinnamon slowly fading. Ice mellows the cinnamon a tad but doesn't really bring the fruit forward. I don't know how New Riff gets so much out of 4 year old whiskey. Overall a nice bottle at first impression.
