It's just okay, clearly not aged long enough. Light flavor, a bit fruity initially. Not terrible for the price, but you can tell it's a budget whiskey ($12 for 750ml).
Nose: Very sweet on the nose with hints of wild berry, apple juice, and cherries. Taste: Sweet and smooth on the palate. Hints of coconut, crisp apples, and pears. Finish: Spicy, sweet, and oaky.
Appearance: Clear, chestnut color with consistent alcohol legs. Aroma: Spicy butterscotch & charred oak; similar flavor with some very clean water. Body: Medium. Finish: Medium long. (Initialed by reviewer).
Sweet, smooth with a little heat. I really like this brandy on a chilly evening; it warms me up.
Clean nose with a bit of wood. Low complexity but nothing unpleasant. Smooth palate, slightly sweet with some wood notes.
Initial sweetness followed by oak and maple. Some vanilla is present throughout.
