500mL bottle, pours a clear vibrant amber with a tiny beige head. Nose certainly brings out the apple and cinnamon upfront, followed by caramel and bourbon barrels. Flavour is complex, with lots of bourbon, apple and cinnamon in pretty wonderful cohesion. There's plenty of caramel in there, but it seems mostly like bourbon and cinnamon -- almost like a bourbon barrel aged liquid baked apple pie. Very well-rounded, cohesive, and warming. Really great.
