Tastes

Warm and inviting nose. Oaky and spicy smells with a slight hint of some caramel or maybe cream. The taste starts off strong with oak then opens up to some dried fruits, like cherries, fresh rye bread, and finishes long with oak and spices. Don’t kill be but it tastes a lot like Makers Mark. A knock off sure but hits a lot of the same notes. For the price of under $20 I love this bourbon. And pick it over Jim Beam bonded which I quite enjoyed. Will for sure be a sipper and can’t wait to try it in an old fashion! Cheers!

Feel the burn baby. Oaky and sweet on the nose, warm and inviting. The taste is trip. Those cinnamon ball candies with an emphasis on the cinnamon and oddly enough some sweet tobacco, reminds me of my days dipping long cut. This one goes very well with a cap or 2 or water mixed in. Tones down the burn and transforms to a wonderful sweet whiskey, cinnamon, sweet corn, and switched the emphasis on the cinnamon candies to the candy! And at the price I would not walk past this

Sweet and soft on the nose. Fruity but no real outlier of a single fruit, then of course that bourbony vanilla. On the taste the fruit comes through, light on the tongue with a medium, bourbon finish. Vanilla and surprisingly banana over coconut! Solid sipper not overbearing, yet tasty.

Musky and young. Almost maple syrup sappiness on the nose with corn and whole wheat bread. The alcohol isn’t overbearing on the palette, but it tastes mostly of creamed corn. Would love to take a trip to this distillery this was a delightful surprise

Will skip with the tasting notes. Flat out this is one of my favorite whiskies. I would drink this every single day if I could

My new favorite bourbon. Delicate, sweet and flowery on the nose. Impossibly smooth up front creamy, sweet and fruity. The finish is long spicy rye and oaky with hints of dark chocolate and cocoa. Incredible bourbon

My first Japanese Whisky and a solid one to start. Light and smooth and fruity, buttery shortbread and small hints of pear to the taste. Heavily floral on the nose and to the taste as well, very similar to Irish but delicious nonetheless

Got this because it was different and it was on sale, but was pleasantly surprised. Rich, smooth, sweet. Caramel up front and a wonderful creamy and oaky finish. Just a smooth sipper corn whisky and a new favorite mid I’m looking for a pleasant sip.
