Nose to me isn’t anything to write home about, but I am currently sipping this from a rocks glass and not a glen. However the palate is where this really shines. Dark chocolate, coffee, hints of vanilla, nuttiness (but not peanuts, more pecans). Slightly brightens on finish with some fruit, leading into the tannic oak and bitter chocolate and coffee notes.. This is definitely a buy, will pick up another from the store when I go back.
