Aroma: cinnamon dominates, brown sugar and a hint of peanuts and fenugreek. Flavor: cinnamon, corn sweetness, slightly bitter oak. Has a slight youngness to it but really not too much. Overall: I tasted this blind and was surprised that it's only 93 proof, it packs a huge spice punch! The large amount of rye helps hide the age but with some water that comes right back. If I find it on sale I'll probably pick up a bottle
