Tastes

Huge spice component, w molasses and copious amounts of corn.

Other review notes suggest light lemon and possibly breakfast tea. Both may be there though even the light smokes overshadows a lot of the subtlety here for me. Not bad, but not a wow.

Not my favorite blend, peat/medicinal heavy. Smoke over takes everything; one note.

The blend of honey and smoke at the finish couldn't be more suited for my tastes. Not one dominant flavor (honey is close as it's present on nose and throughout), and I especially enjoy the cacophony of flavors here. I am sure this trait turns some enthusiasts off though I am sold. Also notes of apple, pear, and ginseng.

Pretty phenomenal for bourbon in this price range. Most reviews talk about this being spicy and while rye/mint finish is there, I still find the sweet honey side slightly dominant. Nose: corn bread w hints of ginger?

sample/didn't get much from this even vs the JB standby

This is serious fun. Sweet honey notes w plenty of fruitiness, as a whole it is irresistible.

sample/not my favorite; kind of strange aftertaste

sample/one looking to try a moderately peated whiskey could do a lot worse than this for very reasonable price

sample/huge, pleasant surprise...base flavors are there w a bit of hops that all works far better than you'd imagine
