There's more than initially meets the eye. The first nosing and taste is SUPER sweet - it's practically creme brulee in liquid form, caramelized sugar and sweet vanilla custard. With a few minutes to breathe, there's a bit of salt and sweet pipe smoke that begin to emerge, as well as a nuttiness (amaretto/marzipan). Rich and luscious with quite a bit going on when you give it some time to open up.
