There’s a lot going on here, but it’s in a style that is a little overblown for me. Nose was initially dominated by oaky scents, but with air earthy graham cracker and super ripe cherry ooze scent emerge. Rich flavors hit the mouth immediately, but then the heat of the high alcohol burns through. Some may like this better than I did, but I’m looking for more for elegance than this gym-bro is providing.
