Nose reminds me of suppository smell, smokey one. Hidden notes of pears or even to fudge. Mouth. Little peppery, vanilla and caramel. Has a crumbly feeling. Adding water drops makes it rounder, softer and tear off this crumbly feeling. Finish leaves the caramelized taste on the tongue, and the mouth smokey though it was not the envelope that shipped the whole dram. Easy to drink. Not too much of my taste but doesn't makes it a bad one to my opinion
