Tasting Notes
"The aroma brings forth smoked vanilla, hearty oak, and dark caramels. It has a moderately full body with tangy and sweet flavors. More of the caramels as well as marshmallows present themselves with wisps of charred oak throughout. Further nosings bring out peanuts as well. A solid bourbon with a solid finish that stays with you awhile. Compared to the Clermont offering, this has a sweeter overall profile and is less spicy than the Boston bottling."
