Aromas are brown sugar, butter with a hint of molasses. Flavors are similar to nose, butter comes out more, add in some spice. Moderately sweet with a little burn in the finish. Decent but not great.
Heavy in the alcohol (49,5%!). Once accustomed to that: banana, peach, apricot, bergamot, nice length, something to savour, not to mix with.
It’s amazing! So smooth, despite if it’s high ABV I did not feel any unpleasant burn.
Lil bitter not Soo sweet
It's fantastic
