Nose: Anise, almond, vanilla bean and cassia

Taste: Thick and rich mouth feel but at the cost of some serious heat. Sweet anise, honey, vanilla, light cassia. Mildly earthy but the anise dominates as would be expected.

Finish: Really long and powerful. Not too hot here, but the heat is present. Warming, sweet and medicinal with a nice hint of candied anise. Slight horehound.

Overall: Overall really nice. The proof is powerful, and overall I have nothing to complain about. This is great neat, and I bet it would be good in cocktails as well.

Thanks for reading!
