This is darker than the delicious Apple Pie, and it just about hits the head on the color of caramel. It has the aroma of caramel, too; it's the alcohol-tinted caramel like you might expect in a moonshine, but it is distinctly caramel. It's thick, too. I could smell that caramel as soon as I broke the seal.First sip is not 100% caramel. The warm feeling going down into the gut is very moonshine, and there is something else there tinting the caramel with adultness. Alcohol twinges all around the caramel, and I imagine this is what the candy that is infused with liquor would taste like - it's very sweet.
Second and third sips reveal a tip-in that is quite unpleasant. It tastes almost like oil or something; like a Werther's Original that's seriously gone off. Then, it opens into the alcohol-laden caramel sweet. The finish is just more of the same with occasional burning from the alcohol.
Bottom Line: Not as bad as some, but not particularly good.
1.75/5
