On first sip, almost salty that slowly mellows to a light honey. The burn is almost slightly delayed, but it stays strong for a long time, until it dissapates into a round mouthfeel. The interesting thing is the residual saltiness coats the top of the mouth; unexpected. Not much of a bouquet that I noticed. Definitely a less complex Bourbon, but the long lingering heat and odd salty/sweet combo makes it worth a taste.
