Trying this one with a little bit of water. Nose - heavy caramel and spices. Taste - starts kind of mellow and bland get a bit of floral and very light vanilla then ends very spicy and some pepper. Overall and value I must say I’m very disappointed in this particular barrel. I have had others that are much less spicy and easier to drink. Adding a cube or two help tone this one down quite a bit but it’s still not the best. Going to hopefully get a much better single barrel next time
