Faint apples and cinnamon on the nose… pleasant and not too strong. Palette had more apple and cinnamon and spices… tasted like Christmas bourbon. Short finish, but plenty good for a sipper.
Bought this hoping it'd be similar to the 6yr Barrel strength release. Not nearly as rich and flavorful, (obviously) but the light fruitiness makes for an interesting pour.
Nose seems to be all ethanol. Not as bad on the palate, but nothing distinguishable. Glad I left it on the shelf and tried it in a local bar.
Too much oak. Sort of like licking a tree. I do get some of the notes in the description below but overall it’s not for me.
Refreshing cool smell, very smooth and fruty taste from the brandy barrel aging. Goes down very smooth with a warm hit.
