Glencairn, neat, rested 20 minutes
Nose: I took a whiff as soon as I poured for that classic Dickel Flintstone vitamin note but after resting 20 minutes it really toned down. I get cinnamon, apple pie filling, and a little vanilla.
Palate: charred oak, a little apple, maybe some cacao if I reach. It's simple, but velvety in the texture.
Finish: long finish of red hots and as the cinnamon fades I get some cherry.
Overall: solid 35$ bottle and way better than the George Dickel I played quarters with in college. I expect I'll reach for this bottle anytime we have fire going. The cinnamon apple pie note is a blast.
