I was gifted this bottle from our sweet friends and ex neighbors in Portland, OR- Marc & Cait. The bottle comes from one of our favorite neighborhood liquor stores down the road from our old houses. “Personally selected by: Rose City Liquor #2” on 5/14/21. Tried neat. On the nares it’s nutty & spicy with notes of vanilla, oak, & fruit. On the palate it’s initially hot with notes of toasted/smoked wood and varnish. Disclosure: hard to know if I would have gotten varnish without reading the description but wow do I get it!!
