Pros and Cons
I'm not sure what exactly I envisioned, but it's sweeter and spicier than I expected. I also found it to be slightly sweeter than the Jim Beam Kentucky Fire.
I'm not a massive fan of the after-burn, but it does tone down if you serve it over ice, or with a mixer. I found it to be way more enjoyable if chilled as well as mixed with ginger ale, apple juice, lemonade or soda water.
I wouldn't recommend this one neat, at room temperature, but if you're looking for a whiskey liqueur to spice your festive cocktails with, then you'll certainly enjoy it.
A 70cl bottle is sold for around £28 on most UK websites.
