Sipping a glass with three ice cubes Smell - it's all sugary salted caramel goodness. So sweet it's almost painful. Flavor - similar to the smell. An overwhelming salted caramel sweetness. The ice provided a slight reduction in sweetness, but it's still excessively sweet for my preference. Overall - this is a limited edition release, so it has a special appeal, but be ready for intense sweetness. I won't be consuming this straight or on ice ever again. I'll find good mixers to experiment with. Credit for a distinctive flavor.

This is indeed a salted caramel flavored spirit, though not precisely. It brings notes of poundcake and light oak, but it really drinks more like a liqueur. Take it for what it is. It's SWEET, and since I enjoy sweetness, I find it enjoyable as an occasional treat. Don't seek complexity or deep contemplation here; this is an alcoholic candy bar.
While I appreciate salted caramel desserts, this was excessively sweet for my preference. It begins with a rich caramel taste on the palate, transitioning to a sugary butterscotch finish. It's an ideal after-dinner drink for those seeking something to accompany or follow dessert. Recommended cigar pairings include San Cristobal de La Habana La Fuerza, Vegas Robaina Unicos, or Trinidad Especiales.
Strong caramel aroma, akin to a schnapps with a whisper of whiskey. The taste follows suit: smooth, sugary (less intense than schnapps) with a mild whiskey finish. This producer crafts some of the finest flavored spirits available. While it would rate lower against unflavored spirits, it's quite decent for a flavored option.
Ideal for caramel apple shots and mixing with bourbon cream! It's flavorful and worth buying extra for parties since it's a limited release. As someone who enjoys scotch and bourbon, this is the only flavored spirit I'd endorse.
This is exceptionally smooth liquor, perhaps the smoothest available. It lacks any harshness and is very sweet, suitable after dinner, or even for someone new to whiskey. It's not ideal for extensive mixing, but try it with eggnog during the holidays; you won't be disappointed.
