Nose:
Honey, floral berries, pipe tobacco. Really fruity. Blackberry, vanilla, baking spices and cherry. Some light melon. Nice pepper. No ethanol.
-
Taste:
Thin to medium mouth feel. No heat. Honey, toffee, blackberry and cherry. Light melon. Baking spices, toffee, cinnamon and vanilla bean. Nice, certainly unique.
-
Finish:
Long, mild, lots going on. Strawberry, cream, vanilla, toffee, and caramel. Super fruit. Reminds me of those old Cream Savers hard candies.

Overall:
Really delicious. I'd drink this over most other SAOS barrels I've had before. Awesome stuff.
