The aroma suggests brown sugar, butter, and a hint of molasses. The taste mirrors the nose, with butter becoming more prominent and some spice added. It's moderately sweet with a slight burn at the end. Acceptable, but not outstanding.
Heavy on the alcohol (49.5%!). Once you get used to that: banana, peach, apricot, bergamot, good length, something to savor, not for mixing.
It's fantastic! Incredibly smooth, and despite its high alcohol content, I experienced no unpleasant burn.
Slightly bitter, not very sweet.
It's amazing
