Nose is very sweet at first approach. Cane sugar and over-ripe pear turning to more perfume-y floral smells. First taste is hot. More alcohol burn. Not showing very well after just being opened. Reminder…

Smelly. Like sulphur smelly, opening up after 15 - 20 minutes leaving a somewhat hot and like malt (like a clearac). It's young, and this instance has been on the shelf since 2007 at least. Cereal and…
