Barrel #1 Bottle #230 Nose: Leather, butterscotch, and oak. Fruity. Ripe berries (wild blackberries) and baked pineapple. Baking spices: cinnamon, cloves and allspice. Limestone minerality and potting soil. Flavors: A surprising ethanol and pepper blast - the aromas promised a smoother ride. (The aromas and nose were quite appealing.) Oily and silky texture in the mouth. A hint of maple and pineapple. It finishes with some lingering tannins on the back palate, as white pepper heat slowly abates.
