Nose: Strawberry jam, molasses, raisins, malted grains, apricot jam, hints of cinnamon. 
Mouthfeel: Light body, loosens, expands, tingly. 
Tasting:  Bitter sweet. Malted grains, strawberry jam, black pepper, vanilla, cinnamon, hints of aluminium foil. 
Finish: Medium. Molasses, malted grains, apricot jam, cinnamon, hints of aluminium foil. 

Comments: 

Quite spicy and sweet, almost bourbony in that sense, but without the grain sweetness (coconut, vanilla, popcorn). There’s some spiciness on the palate as well as the finish.

Verdict:

I like this.
