Appearance: amber hue, moderate viscosity. Smell: honey, vanilla, caramel, banana, pears, green apples, damp wood. Taste: a quick spicy start, feels oily, medium-full body, medium richness, like seltzer water, honey, vanilla, caramel, banana, pears, green apples, rubber, damp wood. Finish: brief to moderate length, a sweet and fruity seltzer aftertaste. Comments: Bourbon enthusiasts might really enjoy this. I was a bit let down after opening the bottle; I had hoped for something different or more complex given the aging across five cask types (American, European, sherry butts, sherry barrels, and port). Personally, I'm only detecting a strong bourbon influence, with no discernible notes from the sherry or port. I'll let it aerate for some time, hoping for a more interesting profile.
