You can indeed smell the pineapple juice and the chocolate vodka does mask the crispness of the whiskey. Now this did if you ask me its a strange combination and not generally a good mix but it did go down easy and masking the smell of the bourbon probably did help me be able to digest this concoction. First thought of substituting the sweet tea vodka instead of but not sure how that would have mixed with the bourbon. Next month will try to do a combo of the sweet tea vodka, butterscotch schnapps and the spiced rum on friend's birthday.
