Tastes

Nose: Sweet caramel notes, with peanuts. A slight hint of vanilla in the back. Tasting : candied apples come through first, with subtle herbal and tobacco notes. A very long pleasant peanut finish Final thoughts: Great bourbon. I may have built it up in my head a bit too much before getting around to trying it; nonetheless, still very good. That long satisfying finish really sets it apart from most.

Nose: sherry comes through with an inviting sweet aroma. Vanilla with cherrie notes follow Tasting : comfortably sweet on the palette; with leather, cherries and a hint of oak to finish. Light on heat, smooth. Final thoughts: This is a very good bourbon; maybe my favorite “finished” bourbon so far. A late night dessert pour.

Nose: caramel ; followed by hints of oak, banana and vanilla. Tasting : oak comes through first, with sweet caramel and nutty notes following. a long strong spicy heat finish, definitely feels young. Final thoughts: decent; however nothing too exciting happening here. Good when compared to bourbons as a whole; however, lower on the bookers scale from the few I’ve had.
