The nose is really nice, as the port finish really shines through, along with a peppery, leathery, red fruit-ish kind of note. The taste isn't too crazy though. A mellow, slightly fruity, slightly creamy taste makes it highly drinkable, but not very interesting. It does linger for a bit in the mouth, but not a lot of heat. Overall, not bad. Not going to be a staple in my bar, but glad I tried it.
