Color: Medium "Rusty" Amber Nose: Sweet — molasses, slight alcohol, old library book (that's a good thing!) Palate: (First pour drank with an ice cube. Second pour with a large ice ball) Slight sweetness, and some char/smoke. Nice. I'm getting other things which I will attribute to the sherry cask. Slight burn in the chest. As the ice dissipates, it opens up and a blast of cinnamon will hit you. Spicy tingle on the back end. Finish: Medium with the lingering back-end spice and woodiness. Sometimes, I can be underwhelmed by a pour. But this one I find quite interesting. I don't typically go for these, "Finished in _____ Casks" expressions. But I'd say this one is worth the $50-$60, or whatever this goes for. I got to try it for free, as it was my final Flaviar freebie — which makes it taste even better. Interesting side note: I like to get my wife's take on the nose (she won't drink it!), so I asked her to nose my glass and tell me what she gets.... she said, "nail polish remover" — which the expert reviewer here also noted in their review.
