Tasting Notes

"It's a drier spirit than one might expect, with less of the corn oil texture common to corn whiskey. It has a nose full of raw alcohol, hay, sweet corn, and caramel. The taste is similar to the nose, with lots of corn, fresh-cut grass, butter, and alcohol. An undisclosed amount of time (a two year minimum) in oak takes a bit of the moonshine edge off. Very little in the way of complexity, but if you enjoy a raw frontier-style spirit, this will please. "
