Nose - Vanilla wafer, banana pudding, Runts, butterscotch, lemon candy, little to no oak, and light ethanol.
Palate - Liquified vanilla wafers, banana and maple flavoring, and watered down oak. Finish is short with dry oak spice, butterscotch, banana saltwater taffy, and light ethanol.
This does nothing for me, and as a result has sat at the back of my cabinet for years. It tastes like the Single Barrel Rye, but worse. With the Barrel Proof Rye now widely available, I see zero reason to ever drop $40 on this. Generally, just skip over the cheap JD products and go straight to the barrel proof or limited releases.
