My nose says “summer apricots”.. no.. no.. “apricots in autumn’ (or was that a Johnny Mercer tune?)... on the palate rose petals chewed up then spit into a lemony biscuit muffin batter then sprinkled with caramel that also had chewed up roses in it.... JUST KIDDING... it is a most wonderful bourbon and everyone should have the pleasure of experiencing this masterpiece.
