Release #6 - 140.2 proof Nose - (w/o water) Dark caramelized brown sugar, barrel aged vanilla, dark chocolate covered cherries, maraschino cherry syrup aged in oak barrels. (w/ water) less cherry notes, but more dark chocolate. Taste - (w/o water) Intense cherry vanilla sweetness, drying oaky cinnamon, concentrated coke syrup, but somehow still with the carbonation. (w/ water) The sweetness is tamed back a bit and the coke syrup has lost a bit of its "fizz" but is still sweet and delicious. Finish - (w/o water) Lingering cinnamon warmth, pleasant oaky coke, pleastantly syrupy sweet. (w/ water) Mellows out the sweetness a bit and turns it into a lightly drying, yet buttery finish. 91/100
