Surprisingly found for sale already in Pennsylvania. Perhaps there is (a small) advantage to state-run liquor monopolies... First impressions: Dark honey-gold color, with haze from the scotch mist increasing the honey impression. However, I seriously doubt this is it's natural color (at least it's non-chill filtered). Nose: Initially powerful cocoa, leading spicy oak and trailing dark cherry. This combination unmistakably conjures boozy chocolate-covered cherries! Underneath lurk (not entirely welcome) hints of agave nectar and tequila (tell-tale young spirit). Palate: Syrupy mouthfeel, sweet and spicy, but fairly hot... Sharp orange zest appears while bourbon-like vanilla gathers on the tongue. Finish is relatively quick, and quite drying. It may just be my fervid idealist opinion, but I'd be more forgiving of this dram's shortcomings had it been natural color with an age statement (even just 3 years!), but it's fetching enough to hold the attention. Dry glass: chocolate syrup.
