Tastes

It smells like SweeTarts and tastes like banana Runts. I’m generally not a Jack fan (unless it’s a Jack and Coke at the Lemmy Lounge at Rainbow), but I’m oddly into it. Still has that Jack/Tennessee whiskey taste I can’t fully get on board with, but it’s something I may go back to from time to time for it’s funkiness.

I tried the cask strength at the distillery and absolutely loved it. (4.5/5) They only had the 45% in bottles, so I picked up a 375ml bottle. I am struggling with this one. The nose is butterscotch, grass, and rubber cement. The taste has some of the butterscotch, but I’m getting heavy mint. Like Fernet mint. This is my second tasting, and the first time was nothing but mint, so I’ll come back to it again in a few weeks.
