Pure Kentucky XO

Wet hay barn, can definitely tell it's from willett

Smooth and smokey.

Smells like medicine and a nut of some type. In the mouth it is slick and oily. Hits the tongue in the back. Taste of a sweet nut. Finish is great, lingers for a nice long while.

The high proof definitely shows in the nose and the first sip. A little bit of water or a cube or two and it seems to open up both to reveal standard Bourbon cherry and almond notes with a little vanilla. You get a little pepper kick nearing rye territory on the finish. It's a solid Bourbon, nothing that would blow anyone away but solid at the price point and proof.

I liked the toffee and caramel with a good medium proof, little hot finish, would be a great mixer
