Tasting Notes
"The aroma brings forth vanilla cream, caramel and dark cherries. Tasting at proof, the bourbon is a bit hot and chewy with oak tannins. Flavors are bittersweet and there's a bit of young corn along the edges. Not really built as a sipper. Would recommend adding water or even better, using in a whiskey-forward cocktail like a Mint Julep or a Manhattan."
