Thrilled to have had the chance to acquire this bottle! Sampled neat. The aroma is fruity and sweet, featuring notes of cherry, strawberry, angel food cake, cream, vanilla, and raspberries. The palate is spicier than anticipated given the sweetness on the nose, with notes of rye, pepper, apples, brown sugar, and red chile.

Reviews

Nose - very sweet and fruity with no burn. Body - definitely fruity but then a distinct chocolate taste afterward that I dislike. I wanted it to remain with the fruit and sweetness!
Notes of cola, cinnamon, and raisin are present, with hints of oatmeal, clove, and pear.
