The nose is actually quite nice. Sweet butter, apple, a bit floral, and pepper. The flavor here is much to be desired. Sure, I didn't have high expectations going in, and there is little positive to come away with. Quite a bit of leather, some tobacco and oak. There's some slight green apple in the background. Some dark licorice and spearmint as well. The finish is a bit bitter and off-putting. I bought this in a taster, so I'm not exactly sure about the cost of a standard bottle. I knew it wasn't much going in. Still, there's much better cheap options.
