Smells like tobacco, corn, a wisp of rye and white chocolate.  Oily yet watery, goes down real easy with a moderate sweetness and lingering woodiness.  Eh.  Relatively crappy.

Light nose of pears, apples, and swimming pool.

 

Palate is kinda nice although light and fleeting; basically a watery sweetness. And though it's pleasing at first, the whole experience quickly gets very alcohol-y, and there's the problem. This one's fine to stay back in history.
