Tasting Notes
"The nose shows both the bourbon and rum notes at full power with a very light rum funk finding its way around the edges. Robust tropical fruits pair well with the caramel and vanilla. You'll find a light grassy sugarcane flavor to join in the symphony of flavors. It is sweet, but not cloying and the finish is long. The bourbon manages to win the flavor battle in the end, but only just. Ultimately, it's a wonderfully balanced ready-to-drink bourbon & rum cocktail. Enjoy on the rocks with perhaps a ginger beer on the side"
