Palate: ⠀
Dusty oak, Leather, Sweet soft vanilla and Cream cheese frosting, Tea spice and Saw dust. Slightly thin but enjoyable. Citrus fruits appear as you hold it longer, maybe some pineapple, orange peel and….dragon fruit??⠀

Finish: ⠀
Medium and slightly dry. Lasting notes of that dusty corn and oak dust. Rye like spice with green tea and bitter sweet vanilla.

Conclusion/Score: 85/100
This was super enjoyable and a nice background sipper. Not overly complex but enough to where I did enjoy taking my time and discovering what it had to offer. The one thing I feel it’s missing though is mouthfeel and proof; if this was only maybe about 10 Proof points higher I thing it would be an absolute stunner.
Either way I’m glad I got it and $70 for a liter of old school tasting goodness is a no brained. Cheers!
