Muted caramel nose, it’s hardly there but it’s there. Spiced mouthfeel and somehow still slightly oily and sweet but the description sounds better than it’s tasting in real life. Muted and watery
Harsh without ice or water. Ice or water drastically changes and smoothes the flavor. Caramel comes thru with water and ice.
Surprised by this one. Didn’t expect much for some reason, but it had good layers of sweet malt and a clean finish.
Nose: strong notes of caramel, vanilla faint cinnamon Taste: dark fruits, chocolate, nice heat that lingers
Vanilla side of things with a hint of cinnamon. Starts with some nice heat but finish is not that long.
Vanilla, cinnamon and dark fruit notes. Slight bite, but yet smooth. Nicely developed bourbon
