Tastes

This was fine, it felt very average, nothing to write home about, but for $17 it was worth it.

Very full flavored & long finish.

Excellent smoky flavor, had a “full bodied” feel & medium-long finish

Easy to drink, I was surprised with how much “port” flavor initially hit the palate. Then the typical rye whiskey flavors became more prominent and finished with very detectable cinnamon & mulling spices. Very nice, this one has a definite fall/winter feel, and needs to be enjoyed around a campfire or outside on a cold night.

It hit the tongue very crisp and light, almost cool like a refreshing glass of water on a hot day, which I was not expecting. It had the sweetness you expect from a wheated bourbon but not too sweet. The finish was spectacular, it slowly coated the entire mouth, and just stayed there uninterrupted. My current favorite to have ever tasted.

I was surprised by this one. Very easy to drink, with next to no spice. The most vanilla I have tasted in a bourbon. First try tasted like vanilla creme brûlée with that crystallized sugar on top. On second taste it was a vanilla pudding bomb. It has a medium to short finish.

Very full & rich. Long finish, and with the higher proof has some spice to it. Has a dark caramel/molasses flavor.

Way better than I expected. Great buy for $18! My current favorite on my shelf. I will be trying to get more. On the nose: Initially I got honey cornbread & the second time it was honey & a distinct peanut. Taste: Full flavored honey & a bit of peanut butter mixed with it. Just the right amount of burn to let you know it’s 100proof.
