$45; LL/EK bottle; 116.8 Proof transitional label bottle; Tasted neat in a Glencairn; Neck pour; rested for 5 minutes;...Nose has vanilla and caramel scents with faint oak and hints of spice with a little ethanol. Slightly oily mouth feel but not overly viscous; but enough to coat the tongue. Initial hit of sweet vanilla sugar, then on to a spicey note flowing into dry oak as the heat shows itself. Long finish with tingling heat, but as that burn finally fades a fresh vanilla, (maybe a touch of mint there?) and sweet spice note is what remains. A solid quality pour for near $50 a bottle.
