3rd time trying but first time review. Enjoying neat. Nose - heavenly sweet and well balanced nose. Great vanilla hit, creamy chocolate, lightly spicy that evens out the nose. Smells delicious. Taste - starts very sweet, vanilla, very light char and oak flavorings, nice and creamy throughout with a nice finish of caramel that is rather short. Surprised I don’t get really any rye when the bottle suggests it’s a rye heavy bourbon. Overall - wow this is a good find here. Great looking bottle and huge style points for the label. Looks like a 100$ bottle. Found this one for 35$ and well worth it. Very good and a must have.
