Ok right off the bat ignore the " professional " review... most here are pretentious as hell.. Just tried this, really wasn't expecting much tbh... nevertheless I opened the bottle let is sit for about 3 min then took a good sniff...wow! The toffee up front was so enticing....I poured a nice pour let it sit for 5 min as iij do with all spirits.. took my first sip and man a really nice spice hit me in the mouth again with the toffee...the linger was nice changing tastes as I sat there from sweet to a leathery spice...and nice moderate finish and great after taste.. buy this . 70 bucks is a tad high I think this is a 50 dollar bottle..but if buy again no doubt
