A delicious unique bourbon. Nicely balanced.
Slight honeysuckle/butterscotch sweetness with 'pretty' dessert baking spices (cardmom, cinnamon) and vanilla, red apple, sweet almond/maraschino cherry. Countered with slightly bitter, toasty wood, almost fresh cut sawdust that dries it out, keeping it from being cloying. Nice dry, moderate finish. I can't help but imagine eating an under-filled cherry danish at a lumberyard. Something for everyone, from newbies that want easy drinking and sweet from the wheat, to even rye fans that like some spice and complexity from the finishing staves
