July 24, 2019 (edited September 11, 2019)
Nose - Dark chocolate, leather, dark toffee, light cinnamon
Taste - Sweet toffee, very drying initial mouthfeel, sweet oak, chocolate, brown simple syrup, hint of sweet leather, maple syrup, espresso crema
Finish - Sweet toffee, sweet mocha, tiny bit of heat/tingle, maple syrup, leather
Score - 86/100
Final Thoughts - I quite liked this one as it hit on at least 2 or 3 of things I like together which is chocolate, coffee, & maple syrup. This is definitely on the sweeter end of the spectrum, very similar to Woodford Reserve Double Oaked and I would treat this as more of a dessert dram than a daily drinking dram. Nice chocolate & gentle coffee/mocha notes throughout. Doesn't really drink like the proof and is overall quite tasty.
Would I drink it if offered? - Yes
Would I specifically order it? - Yes
Would I buy a bottle? - Yes if it's around the same price as Woodford Reserve Double Oaked
