warm stone fruit. waxy, almost greasy, wood spices and fruit smoothness. Good neat, rocks, mixed. Charactered, but not unnecessarily so. RICH mouth feel. I have the tumbler (and ice sphere mold) they recommend it with from buying so much over the years but I promise it's best room temp neat. Pour the dram generous and notice how it opens so nicely sip after sip. Whenever I take a bottle to a party, it usually is this one. best blend for the money. easy choice when under $30usd. mine is $25 w tax.
