Smells like corn cobs and red wine. It feels smoother than the standard version. Notes of creamy vanilla, sweet corn, chewy red sweets, buttery oak, and a whisper of peppercorns. A medium-bodied embrace with a reddish hue.

Very fruity, like grape soda and cherries, followed by cinnamon and spice. It drinks warm for its 93 proof, but overall it's a decent serving.
