Neat. Nose is light caramel, oaky, vanilla, green herbal/anise, with a touch of alcohol. Taste is similar. Very sweet with light caramel, vanilla, smoke, oak, some pepper, green herbs like tarragon, and a little perfume/floral quality. Finish is pretty long. Tart, oak tannins, saccharine sweet, vanilla, black pepper, a little salt, a little heat Average smoothness. Not harsh, but a bite. Flavors are fairly potent and pleasant enough. Has a spicy/floral/sweet profile that's uncommon. Nice drink, but priced a little high IMO. Going to ding it a little for value since the anejo is a bit better for a buck more
