Fahrenheit 173 - Aged Spirits

"If it's not good enough to drink slowly, then it's not worth drinking"

Fragrant, quite oaky nose (fresh oak, I believe) with white pepper, malt, citrus, honey and vanilla. Youngish but quite nice. Smooth, fresh and fairly sweet palate with a note of citrus. Develops mint. The minty note carries over into the finish and is joined by vanilla and a flowery note. Above all, however, the finish is quite oaky and spicy. Disappointing. All in all it's a little unbalanced and has too much oak which makes it a bit vulgar.
