AMM Blind. Aroma is buttery with light oak and agave. Light oak in the flavor along with rich almond. This has a long finish with a hint of spice and tasty vanilla caramel. Excellent. Unfortunately loses points for the nearly $500 price tag.
Lots of fruit, leather, oak on the nose-subtle and light. The flavor has cinnamon, pitted fruit and some barrel spices, but it is light. Other than the cinnamon, the finish dissipates very quickly. Scored a 3 for value.
Fruity nose with alcohol and agave. Pitted fruit and agave flavor. Dry light finish.
Nose - Rich nose. Bourbon, plum, leather, vanilla, oak, toffee, honey butter and fruits Taste - Bourbon, oak, honey, molasses, pecan pie, pepper and fruits Nice mouthfeel feel with a long savory finish
Tasted blind with AMM: Cider aroma pops. Flavors of cider, oak, leather, and dark cherries. Nice long spicy finish. Points deducted for price.

AMM Blind Tasting: On the nose I get caramel, brown sugar, stewed fruit, a hint of citrus, some jam and molasses On the palate it’s full bodied with notes of plum, jam, black pepper, some cooked agave and molasses. A pretty heavy barrel influence on the finish with a good burn. Nearly a $500 price tag
