The noise leads with signature baking spices and dark fruits but is mainly loads of rich toasted sweetness. The pallete is similar, im getting hit up front with a sweet peppercorn followed by all the toasted heavy dark fruits. I cant definitely see the dr pepper spilled on a leather saddle picture in the expert notes. Compared to the stagg jr batch22b you can tell its had more time to blend similar flavors together. If the jr is bright citrus with brown sugar this is a carmelized fruit with toasted brown sugar and molases thats blended o so well. Its full body adds a lovely heft that just makes it all come together. Diabolical this bottle is unobtanium for most
