Not a ton of flavor or aging. Smells like raisins. Feels like someone mixed brandy and whiskey and then put them in sherry casks. Easy simple finish

Floral notes, light spice and delicate rum cake on the nose, smooth, sweet fruits and nuts on the palate, slightly spicy medium finish
Smooth and rich, a little citrus zest I think, a little sweet which I like a lot, unique blend overall… it’s a great cognac
super smooth, not sure deep but if you are enjoying it with friends it would be great.
Light, thin and sweet. #2 in team blind tasting lead by @brooklynwino
