Brownish gold color. Classic malt nose, and a bit of smoke. You have to try a bit to get a good whiff of floral candle sweetness. A touch of butterscotch, banana and creamy caramel. This could literally be alcoholic melted caramel. It isn't too complex, but for a pot still it certainly stands out from what you would expect out of something you would get from say, Midleton. There is a nice burn with some lingering soft creaminess on the finish. If it weren't so hard to obtain I would consider getting a bottle of my own!
