Nose: cinnamon, vanilla cake, brown sugars. No ethanol on the nose. The nose is lovely Palate: barrel spice, Carmel, vanilla frosting, orange zest Finish. Long and lingers. Tingle on the back of tongue. Overall: this 2021 release is 131.3 proof and it drink like it’s 90 proof. Little to no burn. I hate saying “smooth” but that’s exactly what it is. Complex and delicious and very smooth. 9/10. The issue is it’s 250-300 dollars. I probably won’t buy another simply due to the cost. But it’s damn delicious. My bottle is #3843
