This is a huge improvement on the OG Green Spot, to the point that it beggers belief that the only difference is a Zinfandel barrel. Macallan-but-more vibes here. Less brown sugar, bourbon-y notes. But there's so much more floral character instead that it's an easy trade. Bourbon is still there, it's just not as single-note. It's no Redbreast 15, but it goes up very well against Yellow Spot.
