N: Sweet woody maple, peppery, marzipan and cherry(not sherry.) Some sweet old pipe tobacco. P: Rye spice, sweet and musty tree sap, Very plesant mouth and good bite. Port wood shines through. Slight spearmint if you keep it a bit longer in your mouth. F: Dry tannins, leather, some kind of rubber/plastic in a good way. Ceder wood maby. Id say medium to long finish. This might be my new favorite next to Rittenhouse. No tones of dill pickles.. Will buy again.
