Lighter black opaque body with a thick tan collar. So here is the thing, this smells exactly as advertized, the rye, bitters and orange in particular balance well, however the anise back licorice crushes the finish of the sniff. So can't deduct here as it is what it is supposed to be, but the taste has the licorice dominate when combined with everything else, overwhelming the palate. The feel doesn't help as the booze is strong, heavier bodied too, just adding intensity to the flavorings. Just not for me
