The smell is amazing, like marinated cherries. Super strong smell. A splash of water calms the whiskey and opens the flavors of more cherries with a solid finish. Imagine this one proofed down instead of the splash or with more age. The label and marketing ploys ignore, it really is an excellent bourbon on its own.
Oak and candied orange aroma with typical vanilla/cinnamon/caramel notes on the palate. There's a long soft vanilla and rye spice finish, and I'm not picking up much of the malty/musty taste I commonly find in Texas bourbon. It would be fair to call this unremarkable, but:
It is aged [at least] two (2!) years.
It is grain-to-glass Texas whiskey.
It is $39.99.
I'm definitely curious to see what Still Austin releases in the future. I will enjoy this bottle and likely purchase another.
