Aroma - Holy brown sugar and cherry juice. Even a slight hint of prune juice. Damn.. as this thing opens, it’s getting even more intriguing. Huge dark fruits, molasses. I’m getting almost no oak but tons of vanilla. Yeah..this is nose is quite the experience. I have no idea what to expect on the palate.
Taste - Tobacco, black tea, vanilla, oak, cherries up front.. mid palate is slight hint of bubblegum and cinnamon… the finish is where this one shines.. it’s extremely long finish. And the transitions that your palate experiences is crazy. The finish for me starts off with a vanilla and oak profile. The oak almost creates this dry aspect for a fleeting moment but then its a transitions to luxarado cherry and dashes of rye spices and smoke.
Overall - This is the perfect bottle for those bottle shares, family events or even that Friday night pour. It is incredible unique, the bottle design is elegant, it’s not overly spicy and has a long finish.
