Paid $33 for this bottle. This is a bottle kill review. I will try to summarize what this bottle offered. Nose: Young in a good way. Like Alisha Keys when she dropped her first album. Not young in a bad way. Like when Justin Bieber dropped his first album. Virgin oak is a good description. It’s oaky, and vanilla-y. But it’s virgin… y? What? That was bad. Anyways… Palate: It’s well balanced and smooth at first, and then the wood spices say eff this, and take over. Eager-to-please virgin oak. Finish: It’s a delicate balance between the bitter tannins and the vanillins. A little bit of black liquorice and nutmeg too. Interesting for an NAS. Look here, for $33, you don’t get Mizunara. But fuck Mizunara. This is virgin American oak, and it works wonders. And this shit actually regenerates, and is sustainable. For $33, this is a no brainer purchase. Mark: 81/100 (range 76-85. N = 6)
