On the nose, I get some sweet cherry fruit, along with some alcohol burn, molasses, and a touch of mint. The taste is sweet cherry syrup, and a bit dry dusty wood. The finish carries the cherry syrup along with some wood - it's warm and lingers for some time, the finish is quite nice.
Water makes the finish more woody, and there is more sweetness on the nose and taste. It can be enjoyed either way. This one runs around $60 - the company that makes this, Nelson's Green Breir Distillery, is currently changing their lineup, so this is being discontinued. It's good enough I'd be willing to check out the replacement. Rated 3.50/5.0
