This is not as easy drinking as I expected. Definitely needs the right conjuncture to hit the spot... after a good chocolate dessert, perhaps paired with a good cigar - too bad I quit smoking. The alcohol is more prominent than I'd have expected.
I get butterscotch and dulce de leche. Miniature bottle cost $16.50. This is my second bottle in ten years. This is legit sippin' coñac. Good to try this every ten years or so.

Very good, displaying a consistent house style. Way over priced as there are far less expensive alternatives that are better. Sweet caramel, with hints of orange spice, and apple. Very smooth without rough edges, but also lacks the complexity and pizzazz of many others in this price band.

Corked. Could smell it on the cork pull and it increased as it sat in the glass.
