Aroma - honey, pepper, apple, cherries, cloves, spices of cinnamon and even dash of nutmeg. Really nice aroma. Taste - Man.. this is ridiculously smooth. Mouthfeel is quite thin. But taste solid.. really nice oak profile. Little touch of smoke on the finish with a hint of red hot/cinnamon.. Definitely getting an earthy/ nutty note mid palate. Overall - like most Michter offerings, this one does not justify the price point. Aroma is fantastic, taste solid, mouthfeel and finish is lacking. Drinks closer to $70-80 bottle in my honest opinion
