Wood, cacao nibs, citrus, and mild honey on the nose. On the palate, a rush of spice balanced with sweetness, fall spices, slight turpentine, cacao nibs, finishes with dark chocolate that lingers in the finish. Drinks like its proof, maybe even lower. Nicely done. 4/5/2020

I am a huge fan of what BCS does. Their 2020 new year selection is no disappointment. It is strong in a butterscotch flavor, low heat, and little burn. It ends with a nutty butterscotch confectionery flavor.
Better than I remember from my earlier tastes. Drinks pretty light. Fruity finish that’s hard to pin down. Seems like peach?
Very good. Will need to taste it again however nice flavor/heat combination.
Heavy apple notes
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
