Tasting Notes
"I think of this as the "Mr. Clean" of bourbons - super smooth despite what is some obvious brawn in the cask strength. Lots of sweet flavors up front - vanilla, caramel popcorn, candy apple, milk chocolate, finishing with cinnamon and nutmeg, touch of clove and black pepper, whiff of sweet tobacco. Slight heat in the finish, of course, but it seems to come more from the spice than the alcohol itself. Didn't taste it frozen, but get why that could be quite delicious."
