Had the opportunity this evening to try this '15 next to the' 16 version. Both were wonderful and, frankly, I went back and forth as to which I preferred. In the end, I pick this '15 by a nose.
The aroma immediately hit me with Spearmint and then caramel apple, reminds me a little of the Aroma of an Amaro. Flavor fantastic. Deep caramel with slight banana Foster in the background. Honey late and I finally realized that I was tasting some tobacco. Single drop of water brought out some black pepper. I would not add a drop of water here (but do with the '16)
A touch more complexity here and more depth of spice. Happy to have had the chance to try this.
