Alan Costa 3.0

Nose: Inconsistent; it seems to smell of nothing... Palate: Lots of lemon, pecans, malt, rye, oily, but unremarkable. Finish: Pungent and long enough, but again, unremarkable. Ultimately, unremarkable.... Rating 3.00 ___________________________________________________ Naso: inconsistente, sembra di annusare il nulla… Palato: molto limone, noci pecan, malto, rye, oleoso, ma niente di che. Finale: pungente ed abbastanza lungo, ma anche qui niente di che. In definitiva, niente di che…. Voto 3,00

Lakeisha Rush 4.3

Very smooth and somewhat sweet. Reminiscent of a good fruitcake with nuts. The cognac contributes a distinct flavor. I was fortunate to have a couple of small tastes at a book signing.

Ian Lindsay 1.8

Based on its description, one anticipates more from this. The alcohol overpowered the initial butterscotch notes, destroying the delicate flavors.

Lucas Mize 2.3

I can nearly smell caramel; it's smooth, but for me, there isn't much flavor happening.
