Tasting Notes

Nose

This smells like cinnamon toast and a freshly cut tree. Little bit of sweet spice and vanilla with fresh oak.

Palate

This is a hot one, as is to be expected from its proof. Moving past the heat of it there are some dry notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg up front. Transitions to a bit of musty leather, and finishes with a dry peppery oak. Addition of water brings out a bit of caramel sweetness, but also a bit more astringency.
