In a nutshell:
Ridiculously sweet, this "whisky" offers a dense cloud of syrupy cinnamon that mingles with sweet sugary licorice candy and leaves a finish of crushed cinnamon sticks with light notes of alcohol. This "licorice" does not just describe the flavour, but also the sugary sweetness of candy flavoured licorice that bursts with the refined and artificial flavoring of a syrup. To be honest, I cringed when tasting this "whisky". Not my thing and much too sweet for a "whisky", though spot on for a liqueur.  
Likes:
Very smooth and good if you are expected a sweet liqueur type drink 
Dislikes:
Overly sweet and sugary if you are expecting a "whisky"
Price:
$48
