Tastes

Sweet with a little spice. Not overly complex but nice vanilla cream flavor. Easy sipper. The older bottles are better in my opinion.

Disclaimer: I am wheated bourbon guy and this is one of my first single malts so not my wheelhouse. Nose: The nose is approachable at the proof point. However, I could really only pick out oak. Would have liked more of the other notes to come through. Pallet: Drinks below its 114 proof. Smoke, Oak, Leather, Tobacco notes.*** Finish: I get KC15 vibes. It’s smooth by slightly dry, but this is nothing crazy. ***Added a few drops of water and got some sweetness like apricot and dried friut but mostly a smokey oaky flavor through and through. Update (one month later): Let the bottle sit and tried it again. Bottle has opened up very nicely. Flavor is a little more complex and slightly different than before. I still get those malt flavor but some more fruit flavor comes through with a hint of saltyness at the end. Drinks a little hotter than previously but still feels well below the 114. Overall, still not in my wheelhouse but unique and cool bottle to have.

Wonderful pour, nutty and buttery on the nose, complex and full mouth taste of cinnamon, vanilla with a long finish. Highly recommend.

Sweetness on the nose, followed by a fruitness on the palate but has a nice rye finish. Unique flavor and great pour to mix it up.
