Mini bottle poured neat into Glencairn at home. First time I ever noticed this brand, have no expectations one way or the other. Nose has cinnamon and vanilla, some butterscotch. Pleasant, if perhaps a touch too sweet. Taste is more spicy at the front, then bittersweet with some char, raisins, and peanut shells. Bordering on odd. Taste is a letdown from the nose, and the lingering aftertaste is not very nice. Looks like Cooper's will be a one and done for me. 6/8/19
