Dark straw/light molasses color and doesn't even move off the glass. Nose is Caramel, dark toast, cornflakes, some vanilla and a bit of musty grain bin... Big and syrupy on the palate. The viscosity carries the barrel notes throughout. It's a little "raw", but authentic and enjoyable. Finishes with medium length and leaves vanilla and a bit of burnt molasses. Not Stellar but enjoyable.
