Seems to be a lot of ups and downs on this one. Tried it once after opening and again a few days later. Both tastes were neat, one in glencairn and second in rocks glass. Nose - sweet, like candy in a glass, vanilla, brown sugar, cherry, getting the marshmallow, but not as strong as some suggest, has some smokiness to it, and little bit of oak. Palate - marshmallow and cherry quick up front, but quickly milds out with oak, barrel char, some vanilla, definitely has a smokiness to it, and some pepper. I can see why there are references to s’mores, but it doesn’t have the level of sweetness I would expect from a s’more. Would almost describe it as a less sweet Cherry Vanilla Coke flavor on the front end. To me this does not taste as sweet as it smells. Not very oily or buttery, fairly light texture. Finish - moderate, pleasant, cherry and oak, little bit of cinnamon, still hang on to that smokiness, even a little bit of clove. Empty glass smelled like that next morning campfire where you’ve got the mixture of the wet grass and those few remnants of coals still smoking, that brought back some memories. I don’t agree with the expert review on the spiciness at all. I got some spice, but overall thought it was extremely mild. There is some complexity to this one. The nose to palate really threw me, I was expecting a lot of sweetness, but the oak and smokiness real toned it down. I personally really enjoyed this. I do recommend letting it open up a little bit, in the few days after opening the 2nd glass had a bigger flavor profile. I would absolutely buy again. This will probably be a favorite for fall and winter time.
