Nose - vanilla - Cinnamon - Feint oak - Just a hint of citrus, orange or mandarin Palate - ripping vanilla, almost like a fresh vanilla bean - As it sits and opens up, the oak becomes a little more present with just a hint of peppercorn and tobacco - Similar to the nose I get just a hint of citrus on the palate. - No spice Finish - Mild finish, especially considering cask strength - More peppercorn than cinnamon This is a good pour but nothing bold or distinct about it. I wish I had a bottle of regular makers to compare it against 3.9
