Little hot, definitely vanilla with slight toasted almond, black pepper and anise, oily, not my favorite bookers

(2016-05) Nose went from bubble gum to hot brownie. Very sweet taste. A little hot at 129.7 proof but very enjoyable. Still undecided on how I feel about the bubble gum note. For $12 a pour i would drink it all day.

Since my bottle of this is long gone this is a memory review. This was one of the most, if not THE most, delicious & satisfying bourbons I’ve ever had. It bowled me over at the time & I’ve been chasing something equally as good ever since. I recall it being rich, lush, moderately sweet & spicy. So well-balanced & so wonderfully good. #DAD
