ABV 45%
Another whisky liquor ? Ah, a Canadian whisky ? With an addition of sugar obviously. I would have scored it higher if it had been a whisky liquor. Let's call a cat a cat!

Nose: Liquor-like. Sweet, even sugary. The high strength is deceiving. Caramel, a\rhint of citrus fruit.
Palate: Sweet but the alcohol shows behind the sugar. Nougat. Praline. Orange peel. Getting bitter and spicy. Warm sensation. Thus syrupy feel is weird.
Finish: The alcohol balances the sweetness.

Score: 7
