NOSE
Caramel, oak, biscuity, honey, dried cherries, cinnamon and a touch herbal.
Significantly richer and warmer aroma over the traditional Rebel Yell. Not crazy deep or anything, but a big improvement.
PALATE
Oak, caramel, vanilla cake, citrus frosting, baking spice, dried cherries, hazelnuts and a touch herbal.
Again, the Rebel Yell Rebel Reserve is better than the regular RY ever was and it comes through like a decent bourbon. This is pleasantly drinkable.
FINISH
Medium -> Oak, darkly sweet and fruity fades to herbal spice.
