N: Sweet pop initially, lemon drops, but quickly replaced with rubbing alcohol.
P: Um, I have a question...where's the rye?  The rye content is seriously low here, almost seems misbranded.  The sweetness is hard to place, almost like sugarcane, and there's a metallic note as well.  Reminds me a lot of the sugarcane liquor I tried down in Peru, and that's not a compliment.
F: More rubbing alcohol.
This is just really not good.  I would describe the flavor profile as sickening.  It kinda makes me ill.   Too bad I got a whole bottle of this crap!
