Member Ratings and Notes

Chris

Nose is rich but funky, like a chocolate candy bar filled with oranges and beef brisket. And then something sinister which I care not to identify. Extremely bitter and woody all the way through the finish. Mouth becomes dry and a strange metallic taste lingers. I hope I can still have have children. Exceptionally bad.

Adam

A "purple" nose for a bourbon, with candy corn, traces of acetone. Palate is somewhat plain and watery, decently sweet. Finish is just too hot and alcohol-y and... whatever... this is where we really lose points.

Dan

Dark orange amber color. Not much on the nose other than some sweet vanilla. The palate is thin and lacking -- really nothing going on. Forgettable finish. Late 1970s release. [3/10/13]

Andy

Thin, simple, dull.
