On the nose, vanilla, caramel, and a little grassy rye. Sweet cereal, dark brown sugar, floral vanilla, a bit of oak, leather, and ethanol. The finish is oak, rye spice, and carmel corn. Short finish, thin legs, but beautiful color.
This is a really solid bottled in bond bourbon that punches way above it's bottom shelf status and $15 everyday price. It's not as rich as the EW 8 yr Single Barrel, but it's a really solid 50 ABV bourbon that drinks better than some priceier posers. Drink it out of a camping cup or mix it in classic cocktails, it's a solid BIB.
