Aroma - typical main players here… the caramel, vanilla, very faint hint of oak. There is slight bright fruit note here and some citrus to round it out and create a nice balance. As it opens, potpourri notes start to come forward. For $25 this is really nice. Taste - Follows the nose, just everything is dialed back and turned down a notch but the citrus is more evident. More of an orange creamsicle note which I really enjoy. Overall - Drinks a little hotter than 100 proof to be honest (but only very slightly!.. Like around the 105-110 range) Finish is lacking and slightly drying (as expected)… But for the price, I think the value is well above average. The nose particularly is really nice and I would have never had guessed that this was a $25 bottle for a liter. Definitely something I think most should try and keep on hand.
