Self note: FOR MIXING ONLY! Aromas of banana, tropical fruit mix, and hogo. Not bad. Flavors are faint artificial banana, and sweet, burning, hard cinnamon candy with a very dry finish on my tongue. Some anise through the retro-hale. Bleh! This is not a sipper. It's meant for mixing, in my opinion. Rating *NOT* based on neat sipping but as a mixer, where it works very well!
