This is the second glass from a newly opened bottle, which is making the aroma seem constricted and likely means it needs more time to breathe for the full scent to emerge. The aroma and taste both come across as piquant, resembling chili spice rather than warm baking spices. It's astringent due to tannins and not very sugary. I detect some cocoa notes in the aftertaste, but it's an unusual spirit and merits the cost for a solitary try, though I won't purchase a bottle at its high suggested retail price.
