Drinking neat: Floral, fruity, white cake, frosting, tobacco, lemon meringue, spice, young oak, honeydew melon, burnt sugar, dessert wine, cologne. A sugar sweet whiskey with a big glorious floral/melon nose. Somewhat short with a sharp hot finish. The nose is irresistible and I can't get enough. The taste is enjoyable but I can't say I'm blown away by it. It's worth trying but not buying.
