Tasting Notes
Nose
While pouring this it smelled like a Cinnabon. In the glass it smells like butter and brown sugar. It has a noticeable fruitiness with dried cherry and pineapple. There is a bit of vanilla and oak in there as well. I really enjoy how this smells.
Palate
This is quite hot and almost unpalatable for me out of the bottle. I get heavy oak and tannin, a slight spice and tobacco, and a fruit quality that is so faint Im not sure if it is just from the nose. Watering this down certainly helps with the heat, but the oak is just too much for me. The addition of water makes this like licking a barrel that has had some caramel drizzled on it. The finish when diluted is just a heavy oak and tannin.
