I'm not detecting the expected hint of ocean salt. It's a bit more layered than a certain small batch bottling, but I'm uncertain if the complexity comes solely from wood or the maritime aging. There's a presence there, and it's slightly superior.

Floral/fruity aroma, tastes of butterscotch and green apple. Enjoyable, but not worth the price. A friend gave me the bottle some time ago.
Sweet tea, tobacco, vinegar and a little burn. Pretty tasty.
Pleasant oak aroma; very pure, smooth, and oaky.
