Vanilla bean, apple butter, dark jam with hints of rum cake and darker fruits. Not overpowering with ethanol despite the proof. White pepper spice present.
Complex with sweetness masked by darker fruitiness. Notes of dried dates, Turkish figs, and oatmeal raisin cookies with ginger snap spice. Very viscous and creamy for 100 proof. Cinnamon and cooking spices present. Savory with subdued sweetness layered beneath the dark fruit.
Medium to long with lingering spice. A slight drying quality with white pepper notes continuing through. Burnt ginger snap cookie aspect. Viscous enough to warrant returning the glass to the mouth repeatedly.
