Neat. Sample. So so so so excited. The color of this thing is a ridiculous mahogany by the way. On the nose, it is so tightly wound. Everything feels compressed. Zero characteristics of a typical Jack. No banana fosters. Tree bark. Caramel apple. Elephant ears smothered in powdered sugar. Stewed fruits. I’m going to let this sit and open up. Usually I would try right away but I was told this needed air and forgot. But it actually feels like it needs air. 15 minutes later…. That was a torturous wait. Oh that worked. Nose is so sweet now. Lovely butterscotch note emerged. Elephant ear smothered in butterscotch and powder sugar. On the taste, oh that texture is something different. It’s ultra thick but weightless. So the roof of my mouth feels like there is thick syrup but my tongue feels light and fluffy. Probably numbness? So weird! Finish on this thing is nuts but I’ll try not to get ahead of myself. On the tongue, overwhelming butterscotch and cinnamon intenseness. Mid palate is extreme butterscotch that escalates until my toes curl. Finish is the elephant ears and it’s one of those elephant ears that oozes the oil it was fried in as you chew it. Then on the finish is a second wave of stewed fruits. And they go on for days. That was intense. Going back to mid palate there is more nuance than just butterscotch. Cinnamon, nutmeg, apple, clove. Now there is a coffee on the finish. Oh I got a banana appearance deep into the finish. This is all about the finish. I don’t want to take another sip because the flavors don’t stop. I just lean back and let it happen over and over and over. It’s morphing into a bread pudding with butterscotch. Just dessert after dessert after dessert. This is an experience.
