Not bad at all! Ended up getting it for $32 due to some confusion, finagling and some class by the seller, but still under retail and still happy about it.
Aroma is brown sugar and raisins, some vanilla, marshmallows and wisps of oak. Taste is sweet initially and follows the nose. Medium bodied, being pleasant for a blend, then lingering for a while from its oily nature. Finishes a bit spicy and peaty, but with a slight off note that I can only guess is due to it either being a blend, a $32 bottle or both. Nothing that stops me from enjoying though. Might even disappear as I let the bottle breath.
All in all, it won't wow anyone, but it certainly won't piss them off. Well worth the money spent!
