Tastes

Nose: sweet, honey, light peat, fruity, malt Palate: sweet/sherry, light peat Finish: mildly spicy, sweet, light peat. Fairly long finish. An excellent scotch. Very well balanced.

Nose: wood, butter, vanilla Palate: spice, sweetness, vanilla, heat from the alcohol Finish: very long, hot, spicy, sweet A small amount of water mellows a lot of the alcohol heat. I prefer it with water. More complex and smoother than Wild Turkey 101

Nose: peaty, malty, sweet, fruity. Peat definitely dominates. Palate: peat, spicy, sweet, tart. Finish is peaty and tart. Thick mouthfeel with a very long finish.

Nose: sweet, oak, vanilla, cinnamon. Palate: sweet, vanilla, spicy. Finish: medium length, sweet, spicy, oaky. Adding water tames the spice a little and makes it less rich. It is better neat. Overall it is a really well rounded rich and complex bourbon. My new favorite bourbon, and it’s under $25!
