Best Italian I had was first bottle after getting home from Italy…

Earth, cran…. Subtle apricot and mint finish.
tannins softened as we killed the bottle.

The best possible medium plus ballpark frank aromas then bright and birch-y (if I dare say so) on the palate. Smoke is the calling card, earth and bakery aromas back it up. — 4 years ago

@Paul T- Huntington Beach it’s a bit on you, thanks to trying Glenmorangie now by mind is expanded if not too much. But seriously you shared one of the first Scotches you told me old!

Paul T, Missing My Beautiful Wife 24/7

Yeah I remember, but this bottle has some serious Peat & Smoke. Nice upgrade. Great winter nights pour

How does anyone not hoard (regular) Sazerac at ~$25?!
Incredibly smooth, great sweet note to the finish. Again, why haven't I not been buying this for years...?

(BTW Kirkland Bourbon at $30 is worth the price of admission, earthy oak note on the palate is quite similar to Buffalo Trace.)
