Tasting Notes:

Slightly hot nose with a nice note of toasty sugar and slightly earthy vanilla & molasses.
Fairly hot on the palate. Under the heat there are underlying notes of molasses and buttery vanilla.
Fairly hot but for a value brand in this price tier there are some interesting flavors.
The finish is subtle molasses masked by alcohol spice.
