Aroma - Right off the bat… the nose on this is phenomenal. Deep rich oak on this neck pour. Layered with caramel and tons of chocolate. As it opens up, I am getting toasted marshmallow, slight hint of chocolate covered oranges, caramel and maple. Some light dusting of cinnamon and other baking spices here as well. Very complex and an extremely inviting nose on this one.
Taste - Nice. Everything from the nose is coming through on the palate. Tons of milk chocolate, caramel.. touch of sweet honey, cinnamon spice, dark fruits.. slight citrus note. Every once in a while I’m getting a spearmint note on the finish.
Overall - this is a great pour. Would love to compare this to BRT-01. Only knock is that I wish the finish was a bit longer. It’s got decent viscosity but the finish a a bit shorter than what I was expecting from the mouthfeel.
