The nose has light spice and candied apricots. Caribbean spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice are present at the front of the palate. The finish has a bit of bright, spicy molasses. It's very unlike any other finished bourbon I've ever experienced. I was anticipating something similar to Angel's Envy Rye finished in a Rum Barrel, but this is remarkably bolder and has a more unusual flavor profile.
