Nose: fruity and light. A little spice. Very makers mark-ish. Palate: light and spicy. Some mint initially too. A little hot for 90 proof. Finish: short and sweet. Kind of like the end of a stick of juicy fruit. Overall: not bad at all. Id be down to try the cask strength or eventually if they have a product with a decent age on it (12+ years) id buy!
