Enjoying neat at a bar. Nose - apples, cinnamon, oak, leather, apricots and other various fruits and spices. Taste - surprised by the reviews on here with it being spicy. I do not get the spice as described. Lots of apples, cinnamon, vanilla, oak, and some light Smokey notes. Not near as fruity as the nose suggests. Overall - another great offering from Elijah craig. Cannot wait to find my own bottle to enjoy. Solid pour
