The flavor is rich and woody in a way that reminds me of bourbon with some slight floor polish hints, but ones that are not too bad. The wood is initially overwhelming, but bits of maple syrup eventually slip through. The drink is smooth, but it does taste a bit of rubbing alcohol (just a bit). There is definitely a Chopin Wheat Vodka presence. Unfortunately, the bitterness takes charge a bit too much. It has elements of young scotch that I do not enjoy, though maybe I would after repeated exposure. The floor polish and hints of coconut remind me of Glenfarclas 25, but not in a really good way. Cinnamon spiciness backed by unsweetened cocoa powder is there, but not overwhelming. I wish the finish were sweeter and that there were more going on here. Unfortunately, it is kind of bland. The vodka flavor is really not welcome in an anejo. The chocolate finish is distressingly dry, even without drinking anything particularly sweet beforehand. After a full pour, I do get that grape drink flavor that Distiller promises for a moment, but why is that a good thing. Interesting, but really just neutral. Note: this review underestimates the sweetness.
