This is good, but not amazing, especially compared to the previous version of this (which was $11 / 500ml, instead of $25 / 750ml). Notes of rich bitter cider apples, caramel, brown sugar, leather, and orange. This is more bitter, drier, thinner bodied, and higher ABV than the previous version, which I much prefer. I still enjoyed this version though.

The pour is a clear amber with a low carbonation. The aroma is phenolic bordering on farmhouse. The taste is a dry whiskey and slightly tart. The mouthfeel is light to medium and the finish is long astringent. It has a really nice soft astringent finish. I quite enjoy it.
