4.0 out of 5 stars
This had a very sharp nose at first, but after a few seconds the vanilla started to come out. Very spicy, with toffee notes in the tasting. It has a long, warm (nearly burning) finish.
With a few drops of water, the nose mellows and the taste of toffee moves more toward caramel with cherry notes, maybe even candied cherries. The finish mellows too.
But the spiciness stays...

I just purchased this bottle, and within the last week I’ve enjoyed 2 pours. It pours nicely with vanilla and a charred sent. I do get some spice on the back end but nothing that ruins the flavor. I am shocked at the smoothness of this bourbon considering the high ABV. I’ve head that the flavor will open up over time with natural oxygenation, so I’m curious to see how that will effect the taste. Over all I’m pleased at this point and would recommend this bourbon. It’s a good choice to sit and sip with.
