Tastes

This is my go to werknight bourbon. Its sweet, its baking soice forward, and rich and even has a bit of complexity to me. I love it neat, i love it for an old fashioned. I think it is the most versatile bourbon to me right now. The proof is great, its approachable and the warm baking spice note to it is exactkybwhat i look for. I see people say its herbal, i can see that. It gas some herbaceousness but i wouldnt be steered away from that. Its warm, its sweet, its balanced and the big boy bottle is only $59 around me. Its a great place to start and great to keep around.

The expert tasting botes are almost exactky what i taste. I get a strong orange peel note on the nose but also, a bit of heat. Nutty, cinnamon, sweet, and light. Its oily but light in the tongue, sweetness hits immediately and the orange hits again. Its bright, then it gets warm and the baking spice kicks in and it rounds out. Definitely gives a little kentucky hug, but its well rounded light and oily.

Had a boozy nose with hints of cinnamon, caramel and oak. On the toungue, warm and oily then becomes almost chewy. Cinnamon and some heat, caramelnl sweetness in the middle and an almost fruity and light finish. Very rich, complex… i am still new and learning about bourbons but it has a sweetness that is so appealing, definitely doesnt feel 119 proof. It drinks easier but definitely has some gas. This is one of my new favorites, getting into higher proof

A ton of honey and honeysuckle on the nose, vanilla and smoke. A little bit of spice and wood. Very sweet smelling. Stsrts off sweet and light on the tongue, vanilla and honey forward with some tobacco and leather, a bit of baking spice as it warms up. The proof comes through at the end but is very smooth. Tastes somehow classic nd new at the same time, very tasty for it's price. Maybe a new favorite of mine

Strong spice note on the nose, good caramel flavor on the tongue, sweet, slight spice, slight smooth burn. Very tasty

Lots of vanilla, lots of smoke. Good sweetness, Carmel apple... Delicious sipper

Honestly, my favorite cheaper bottle. It always brings me joy. The review is dead on, string vanilla and cinnamon smell, quite the spice note. It is oily, moves around the mouth in a solid piece and tingles the taste buds. Smooth, with a punch of warmth, cinnamon, smoke and a nice sweetness.

On the nose, toffee, honey, burnt sugar and wood. On the palate, cinnamon and some more spicy, herbal note I can't figure. Has a brightness of tart fruit, honey and rich smoke finish. Quite oily, very nice

Strong vanilla flavor, caramel comes through. The description is great. Very smooth, full bodied. Not overly harsh or smoked out. It's complex, I taste new things with every sip. Love it!
