Do not get confused with the George Dickel name on the bottle as this is not a whiskey. On the nose it is sweet with a slight chile pepper scent hovering in the background. It is interesting enough to lure you to take a sip at which time you are overwhelmed with the sweetness. This is not to be confused with a good honey or sweet corn flavor but instead douses your palate in a pure simple syrup flavor. There is a Tabasco on the back of the palate on the tail end of the finish. I would only recommend this as a spirit best enjoyed as a shot similar to Fireball without the cinnamon.
