Nose - initially reminded me of tequila in a weird way, got better as the bottle went on with a nutty malt, sugary fruit Taste - rather smooth and sweet with smoke and a bit of tobacco Finish - not too long, easy here with oak Score - 3.25, nose is not that great at first but got better, taste is the winner on this one Scoring Legend 5.0 - Outstanding, unmatched to others 4.5 - Excellent, I will always keep a bottle in stock if possible 4.0 - Very good, quite enjoyable to drink, can consider as a solid choice 3.5 - Good, would taste again 3.0 - Average 2.5 - Acceptable, still drinkable 2.0 - Inferior, able to drink but not enjoyable 1.5 and below—wouldn’t drink again unless I am desperate
