Color: Medium Copper-Amber Nose: I really can't claim to be one of those people who can pick-out a distillery from the nose (although I can identify an Old Forester nose in my sleep). But I would say this nose is very "Beamy". Lots of cinnamon and oak. Not much alcohol to speak of. I always like that — regardless of proof. Damned if I'm not detecting a hint 'o cherry, as well. Palate: (drank with an ice cube) Slightly light mouth feel. The bottle claims there are notes of vanilla and cinnamon. I think I'm getting the vanilla (I swear, I've never had a pour that made me jump out of my seat and exclaim, "Vanilla!")... but I will say, "vanilla" here. As the ice cube melts, I get something akin to, "fruity". This is not very sweet — which is fine. I'd say "spicy" and "toasty" are the main take-aways from this first pour. Secondary Nose (what is happening on the nose as the ice melts and it opens-up a bit): Baked apples! Finish: Short and lightly bitter — but in a way that somehow works well with — rounds out — this juice's overall profile. This stuff is good. For the price, I'd say it's very good. I will probably grab another bottle, as it will be good to have around during the holidays. Solid 3.75 stars, all things considered.
