Nose: funky in the best way. Molasses, berries, dried red fruit. Palate: totally different from nose. Oily wonderful mouthfeel. Caramel, cinnamon vanilla, and cereal. Drinks well below the 106 proof. Added a drop of water and the berries from the nose reappeared. Finish: slightly short but very well balanced. So different from the classic JD profile, and I think this is a great limited edition. Well executed and thought provoking. I foresee this making its way with me on camping trips, perfect for contemplating under the stars.
