Nose is faint. Vanilla is a pleasant stand out, backed up by oak. Mild caramel. Ethanol is hard to ignore. Not much else. Strong vanilla flavor with lots of dry oak. Also get some caramel and maybe a little bit of a nutty flavor. Again, not much else I can pick up on. Finish is dry with a ton of oak and spice, and is fairly hot. Overall I wasn't too impressed. Didn't have too much going on and the oak really overpowers it for me. Plus it's a little hotter than I was expecting.
