Nose- Heavy oak, sawdust, black licorice, black pepper, caramel Taste- Toasted oak, black licorice, creme brulee, burnt orange Finish- long spicy finish with deep oak undertones This is fantastic. Big, bold and in your face. The oak is tasty and perfectly balanced with the other smells and flavors. Tastes like a highly aged bourbon. I also get some unique flavors from this one that’s hard to find in other drams.
