The nose is very sweet and playful. I pick up vanilla, butter scotch, and something like raspberries are good old fashion red Kool-Aid. If I sniff on I feel like I detect just a bit of oak as well as a warm pipe smoke aroma like black Cavendish. I don’t get a lot of spice. Others have said toasted marshmallow which I can see that I don’t think you’ll be my first guess. The precipitous moved on the pallet and I feel like raspberries and caramel come through. There’s a bit of baking spice to it but it doesn’t seem to predominate. In a lot of ways he reminds me of a softer version of old Forrester 1920 and it’s complex but just without the heat and spice of its higher proof brother. I think the only thing lacking would be just a little bit more smoke or char. Otherwise this is excellent.
