Tastes

On the nose fruity and chocolate at first. First sip offers char, chocolate, and apple. Ice doesn’t add much for me. Ice does soften the burn slightly but overall not much change in flavor. Not very complex.

On the nose strong vanilla with slight ethanol. Great arroma. First sip is surprisingly sweet with notes of vanilla, old worn leather, floral, and pecan. For a barrel proof and being over 116 this does not have a severe burn. The burn is as smooth as the juice itself. This could easily be enjoyed neat. Ice cube brings out some of the peppery undertones, softens the burn, and increased the linger and full mouth feel. This one is good all around. No matter how you drink it you will enjoy this one! I recommend it highly!

On the nose sweet sherry and slight peatyness. Sweet sherry contiues on first sip with a slight floral and peatyness. Mild burn through tasting. Ice only changes the burn. This is a good offering and even though not a highly sought brand worrh the purchase.

Hazelnut is strong on the nose with light toffee. First sip pulls in peaty notes, continued hazelnut, char, oak, and leather. Ice cube opens up more of the peatyness. Really good for sippimg no matter how you enjoy drinking it.

Peaty and floral on the nose. Smooth on forst sip. No real burn and decent linger throughout. Peary is the most prevalent flavor through first sip. Add a cube of ice for a new soft and subtle experience.

Floral, honey, and slight citris on the nose. Peaty, char, and slight oak on the first sip. Tannic on the front of the tongue and a quick flash burn at the back of the throat. The flavor isnt intense but the linger is longer than expected. Ice cube removes any burn and isolates some of the peaty and honey. Been wanting to try this and glad i got to. This is as good as i hoped. I recommend this to anyone that hasn’t tried it.

Choclate is real evident on the nose. Oak and char are up front and center on the first sip with chocolate and black pepper. Burn isn’t too long nor intense. Flavors last a while with a subtle long linger. Ice doesn’t change much. This is a good bourbon and i recommend it if you can find it.

Sweet green sour apples on the nose. First sip has a slight ethereal taste with tannic undertones. Spice is hit or miss for me. Ice doesn’t change much. Not much to offer.

On the nose I get floral and vanilla. First sip offers Woody, oak, leather, with a peppery finish. Burn is there and really nice duration. The linger doesn’t last too long. I would like it to last a longer but still consistent with a good bourbon. Ice reduces burn but intensified the leather, char, and opens up a slight oak finish. Not bad for a distillery only open for 7+yrs.

Vanilla is very heavy on the nose. First sip is full of vanilla and char. Ice really pulls out the char and smokey flavor. Not bad.
