Picked one of these up a few weeks ago, I doubt mike and I get to reviewing it....we might? I'm torn on us doing a few quality entry level bottles or not. They do well but you know...brand stuff. Anyway.
Nose - worm wood in the house! Funky, vanilla, chewy chocolate, plastic, hints of sulfur, toasted toffee, artificial caramel...i can't really do this justice. It's that worm wood element with not much age, not much barrel char, no peat, and playing with these sweet non fruit elements.
Taste - Well now I get some peat like notes. Great rich complex funky nutty oak and weird hard candies you'd have found at your grandmother's house. Hints of sour, hints of bitter, with good sweet without being sugar driven elements.
Honestly, this is really dang dang good stuff. I'm at 3.0. It's just really enjoyable.
It isn't old, it isn't high abv, it's nice.
