Quite happy with this. It's balanced, intricate, smooth, with intriguing notes of mint and black tea layered over red fruit and a hint of vanilla. I anticipated more burn from the 100 proof but was instead met with refinement. An excellent debut for Dread River’s Master Series, and kudos to Eboni Major.
