Its golden hue suggest standard honey-vanilla notes, but it's far more unusual than I expected. I was fooled by the cute bottle. I smell virgin oak, unsweetened pineapple juice, heather, and some smoke so subtle it might as well be Scotland fog. The palate is equally interesting: very smooth and silky but much less sweet than I was led to believe. Earthy, woody finish. Pretty fun stuff, all in all!
