Nose

Flat Coca Cola, rum steeped cassia bark, hints of anise, big rancio /mushroomy earthiness and overcooked gingerbread.

Palate

Chop-smackingly dry and bold on the tongue. This one will immediately divide opinion: too dry and woody, or just brutally direct and unapologetic?

Finish

Dry, slightly bitter and meaty.

Comment

On one hand, I admire how one-dimensional this is, but it isn't going to be for everyone.
