Review and Tasting

Sampled on 05/10/2011

Appearance

Clear, red-golden.

Aroma

Cinnamon and ginger nose.

Taste

Fiery ginger and cinnamon whisky palate with hot pepper.

Aftertaste

Pepper, cinnamon hot finish that outlasts nuclear half-life. This product promises 'Fireball Cinnamon Whisky' and delivers just that. Many will hate it, but some will love it, and come a round of shots you may very well down it in one but you'll still have the flavour on the bus home.
