I opened this and backed away quickly. It reeks of alcohol, my husband gagged after smelling it and my mother said it smelled of liqueur filled chocolates. I wasn’t hoping for much as I brewed this, and I’m glad that I didn’t get my hopes up. It smelled slightly less of rubbing alcohol as it steeped, and started to smell spicy instead. Upon drinking though, I found there was a definite alcohol-ish flavour to it. It was sweet, I could taste the maple, and a mass of spices that I could not readily identify individually, but that alcoholic aftertaste was just blargh!
