Tasting notes
Nose: Ethanol up front, then vanilla, cherry, and caramel when it calms down.
Palate: Vanilla extract and caramel sweetness; smoother than the nose but light on depth.
Finish: Short-to-medium with a gentle sweetness and minimal oak grip.
Pairing
Try with a mild Connecticut wrapper cigar or over one cube of ice.
Final verdict
Nice presentation and a friendly sip, but I wanted more weight and complexity.
