I would say closer to a 3.5 for me than a true 4. The nose was very strong with alcohol, with a hint of sweet vanilla and a leathery type aroma. Would have been more pleasant save for the bit of alcohol sting in the nostrils. Definitely let it air for a few minutes after pouring. The palate is much better than the nose, a nice balance of sweet vanilla, cinnamon and spice, and maybe a bit of pepper. I found the finish to be medium, with the sweet lingering longer than the spice but ending before I expected it to. I didn't try this with any water or ice, but I may experiment with both next. Overall at the price point ($26), this is very well worth picking up.
