Assessed in a Glencairn spirits nosing glass. Aroma - Neat - Light honey, mild leather, slightly resinous, very gentle and clean. Adding a drop of water . . . This has brought the leather forward just a bit. Taste - Neat - Honey suckle, mild worn leather, slightly nippy, adding a drop of water . . . Mild vanilla, more prevalent honey. Final thoughts - This is an easy drinking little bourbon. You aren’t going to find a ton of complexity here, but what it delivers on (honey and leather) it does so in a very gentle and clean tasting way. For $35.00 a bottle, this ones a no-brainer.
