Color: Gin clear

General description

The first JJ Cory I've tasted but a bit disappointing given the hype. After the initial hit of spice and alcohol fizzling out quickly after that.

Nose

Hot yet fruity nose, with the promise of baked apples and hints of caramel.

Palate

Far hotter than its 46% which burns off the fruit that was there.

Finish

Long hot thin alcoholic finish. A little spice but mostly ethanol. Though to be fair it does open up a little with some time to breathe.
