There are not a lot of Carmel or Oak here.. other aged notes, like vanilla and cinnamon, were present, but they seemed to take the back seat and let the citrus, floral, and few herbal notes do the driving. At the end of the day, whether you love it or hate this one, the complexity here makes it hard to accuse this Añejo of not being memorable.
