Tastes

Appearance: mahogany/burnt amber color Aroma: slight vanilla bean, quite a bit of burn on the nose. Splash of water brings out notes better. Caramel after water was added. Cherry notes as well. Oak forward, definitely a corn alcohol Palate: typical maker’s palate with slight more kick. With added water cuts down the heat, and oak really shines through. Very corn forward with that slight vanilla undertone. Finish: sweetness remained on lips afterward. Oak finish, not much of the vanilla or undertones remain other than oak. Typical maker’s product with more heat. Classic bourbon

Appearance- light gold/marigold color. Very light and clear Aroma- ethanol forward, slight vanilla, green apple, harsh burn on the nose. Smoke and wood Palate- honey (after sat for a few minutes), very floral and light burn, very sweet. Finish- honey forward, slight coffee, not much burn and some slight spice, white pepper perhaps? It’s not terrible, but not my favorite. I’m not sure I’d buy again but it wasn’t terrible
