Nosing: Vanille Honig Eiche

Taste: Vanille Eiche Gewürze Öl

Finish: Vanille Eiche Öl Süße

Comment:
A staple for many (though, sadly, not for myself). This comes off as a scent of Honey with Vanilla with Oak enriched fumes, but once Taste begins, the Honey vanishes and turns more to an Oil spread across the balance, leaving the Oak and Vanilla to become slightly muddled with Spices. Finish is not too bad, but the Oak and Oil come out slightly stronger. A polite gift for a Layman, a Simple Bourbon for Lovers.
