The nose is dominated by ethanol, with a hint of floral and nuttiness after swirling. It seems young and thin, leaving no oily legs in the glass. It stings the tongue early. Thin and fiery for a 101 proof. Not overly sweet, with some honey, but less than anticipated. Some nuttiness appears towards the end. It's recommended to let it breathe to reveal more flavors. Overall, I found it enjoyable and plan to revisit it to see if it develops further. Is it worth $60? I'd prefer the rare breed, OF100, and eagle rare for less.

The nose has notes of molasses or a fruity cantaloupe, rather than honey. A brief ethanol burn is followed by a sweet licorice flavor and a lengthy finish. It's a bit overrated, in my opinion, as the honey aspect is completely absent.
