Tastes

Nose: vanilla, bread, dried fruit Palate: viscous mouthfeel, syrupy but not coyingly so. Notes of dried fruit and bread continue here with oak and leather fading in. Medium drying finish of leather and oak. Certainly enjoyable, would happily pay $60/bottle. At $100/liter at the duty free, worth the purchase to experience it. Not sure yet if I’d buy another one.

Simple but surprisingly pleasant on the nose; caramel, vanilla, creamed corn. Palate: one dimensional, corn sweetness. Medium finish of wood and leather. Not nearly as harsh as I was expecting. For the price certainly not bad. Will easily finish the bottle but also, for the price, I’d choose Evan Williams black every time.

Nose of honey, vanilla, and dried fruits; raisins and dogs carry through to the palate. Long finish of oak and tobacco.

Nose: cherry and cinnamon spice Palate: rye spice layered with toasted marshmallows and bread. Finish: lingering dry spice

Nose: sweet vanilla and raisin. Sharp alcoholic edge. Palate: sweet, young and grassy. Overly woody. Finish: smooth, dry, slightly bitter, lingering. Nothing offensive but nothing special. Overpriced. Girlfriend was here. :)

Nose: sweet cherry, green wood, slightly floral and grassy, vanilla. Perfect blend of bourbon caramel and vanilla sweetness and rye spice. Long warm finish of dried fruit and oak.

Nose: sweet caramel with a hint of popcorn More spice than I was expecting based on what I’ve read about this. Not as sweet as I was expecting from the nose. Lingering oaky, bready finish. Easy drinking. Nothing at all offensive but nothing stand out.

Nose: hot and sweet. Reminiscent of brandy in a snifter. Notes of dried fruit, cinnamon and banana. Dried fruit sweetness. Cinnamon and spice. High proof heat and rye spice. Not bad neat. I feel like it would be great in an old fashioned.

Hot on the tongue but smooth going down. Not very complex. Creamy sweetness quickly moves to Leather and spice. Medium finish of caramel sweetness and leather.
