OMGosh the nose!!!! It's milky chocolate, it's slightly nutty, it's has warm vanilla and maple (not like Angel's Envy Rum finished Rye)...to quote Seth Rogen in pineapple express, "I want to live in here" P: light Cherry, Spice and a slight fruitiness, does have some heat to it. Peppery Rye notes also present. F: The spice and heat from the back pallete lead. Spice continues to linger with a slight sweetness but alot. Smooth like a Cask Strength, hahaha. In short the complexity is real. Interested to see future iterations and compare. Must try.

This was an unexpected find at a little Italian market in San Diego. On the nose I get wood, maple syrup, vanilla, char, caramel, pear, tobacco and strawberry. Spicy on the palate, with charred wood, cinnamon and black and white pepper, but sweet caramel, vanilla and cherry come through too. There’s a lingering finish of spicy Red Hots. Overall an interesting concept, nice whiskey, and not a horrible price for something I’ll likely never see again.
Thanks to @Looneyhead This is great. Tried neat and its warm on my palate with notes of vanilla, pepper, oak, caramel, chocolate.
