Tasting Notes
"While the cognac influence is here with added fruit flavors such as apricots and golden raisins, there's still a bit of vanilla bourbon notes still to be found. The whiskey has nicely integrated barrel spices which make the bourbon smooth and not tight or tannic. Mildly sweet, but not overly so, this is a solid expression with a nice finish. "
