Reviewed November 14, 2020 (edited January 21, 2021)Nose - corn, butterscotch, vanilla, red fruit (date, plum), black pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - corn, rye spice, black pepper, clove, allspice, red fruit, butterscotch, peanut, vanilla, moderate alcohol burn, finish pretty quickly with fading corn, rye and baking spice, red fruit flavors. I’m not doing this one justice, since I’m reviewing it over dinner at a restaurant, but it’s alright. The port finish is present (and welcome), but the bourbon tastes too young to be an outstanding sipper. -

Reviewed November 6, 2020 (edited November 18, 2020)Distinctive nose Definitely pick up the port Very sweet Black Cherry Smokey on the end Port and accompanying sweetness carries through the palate - mouthfeel is slightly thinner than expected Finish is well balanced with minimal bite, is fairly short Not a lot of complexity here, but this is an excellent pour for the price.39.99 USD per Bottle
