A little funk on the nose, right off, but don’t let that fool you. That’s just that nice Marsala cask saying “hello!” Almonds up front, with vanilla, a slight green apple/tea, and tobacco note on the nose. The palate brings marzipan, cream, vanilla, truffles, a little smoke, and white pepper. Mmmmm good! The oily medium mouth coat brings a well rounded long finish of smoked fish, capers, and faint ash. This is a very nice change to Bunny’s typical line. It will make you want to try more expanded offerings they have. 4.0. The theme for this dram should be “Si Maritau Rosa” by Gian Campione since @LeeEvolved scoffed at my last Italian favorite. I am just sticking with the region of the cask, maaaaaaaan. :)

Lol, please don’t.
Hey!! Those are damn good too! Don’t sell yourself short. I will break out some NJ on the next dram. :)
I’m just jealous of your musical knowledge. If I themed my samples it would be: this one is Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi, this one is Runaway by Bon Jovi, this one is Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi...
