The color is a brownish, dark amber with heavy legs that coat the glass. The nose is full of corn, caramel and charred oak at first, with molasses, vanilla and a hint of honey and dark chocolate following it up. The palate is a wonderful burst of pepper balanced by caramel, honey and vanilla while oak and caramel holds it all together. The finish is long with spice mixing with caramel and oak that takes its time to fade, as dark chocolate and vanilla linger behind it.
