My first try of a Dickel offering. I know many reviewers have found a uniqueness to Dickel similar to Beam peanut funk or Jack Daniel's banana flavor. Let's see what it holds. Initially some ethanol on the nose but after 5 minutes in the glass it's gone leaving a nice aroma of corn dust, toasted marshmallow, pencil shavings, tire rubber (uh oh), and mineral/vitamins (further uh-oh) On the palate there's some richness with predominant flavors being caramel, almost burnt buttered toast, oak, and marzipan. The finish? Well, crap. There it is; Flintstone vitamins. Specifically the peach colored/flavored one. There is also cinnamon, oak, and mint here as well but the mineral note really kicks your ass and not in a good way, which makes me thankful that the duration is only medium length. It is soft for the proof I will give it that. Overall, there's some decent things here in the beginning, but the finish ruins this for me. Just too damn weird. I can't say I'd recommend this, especially at the price point. But maybe I won't die of scurvy now having had my vitamins and all...
