Honey, ripe apple, butterscotch and maple on the nose. Smells “sweet” compared to no.7. On the palate vanilla hits first but not overpowering, followed by light maple, and a slightly smokey and pepper-spice. Finish fades to light sweet caramel with a hint of vanilla. Easily the 2nd best series offering from JD behind the bolder (and higher ABV) Sinatra series.
