*** SALSA *** Nose - Wow that is some deeep cherry. Little barrel spice. Maybe some toasted oak lingers but that is just a cherry bomb on the nose. Palate - Now this is a bourbon. Nice oak and leather with some light vanilla notes. Some nutty notes come forward strong in the mid palate. Theres some chili spice (little deeper than cinnamon) but its not overpowering, just complimentary. Finish - The nuttiness and the bitterness from the oak and leather is what sticks around. Also that cherry kind of comes back on the finish.
