Nose - Cherry & strawberry cough drops, canned cranberry sauce, dark honey, dark toffee Taste - Sweet cherry/strawberry/fresh dark stone fruits, hint of dark chocolate, dark toffee, light candied ginger spice, light stone fruit pit bitterness on backend Finish - Long lasting dark stone fruit sweet, hint of bitterness lingers, light white pepper tingle, cocoa nib bitterness Score - 84/100 Final Thoughts - The nose on this one screams dessert dram. I have a feeling this would be the perfect pairing to a dark chocolate cake or anything else that has some sort of berry compote to help complement the light bitterness that this dram has with it. The nose is great but can probably get a bit overwhelmingly sweet for some. Starts out great on the tongue, but transitions to this light metallic bitterness that I occasionally get with some oloroso finished Scotches. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - Maybe, with dessert Would I buy a bottle? - Probably not another
