Pours dark browned amber. Small to no head. Scent has some dried fruits, milder caramel. borubon and wood are lost. Medium intensity, far lighter than expected. Taste is medium full, rather creamy, dried fruits, caramel, some whiff of chocolate. Lovely balance, not over the top yet. Barrel is lost though. Nice.
Bottle at Craig's.
Woah.
