Note: this has about 4oz left in the bottle. This had been a pretty good pour, but now has really opened up, so do with that what you will.
N: Cherries and oak! This is new. I think it was leaning more floral (as expected) for most of its life, but has now transition into full dark cherry. Not quite Luden's, but very close. If I didn't know what I was drinking, I would guess something from Barton.
P: Dark cherry, oak, and a little oak with char to boot. I wish this one had started out this way and just maintained this flavor profile. I'll still finish it soon and open a new OBSQ, but it will be missed.
F: The dark cherry, charred oak experience continues on the finish. I'm a huge fan of Four Roses, but I know several people who aren't. I'm tempted to sneak the last 2oz of this one into a blind to see the reactions on the reveal.
