Tasting Notes
"Sometimes bourbon doesn't need to taste like anything other than bourbon, and this is one of those times. Oakiness, a hint of orange peel and spices welcome the palate. Sweet toasted corn, brown sugar, vanilla, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon and oregano are the upfront flavors, with hints of fresh berries and a bit of leatheriness carrying it into the medium-hot finish. Big flavor, classic, a little sweet, a little charr-y. Hello, bourbon! "
