Aged 4 1/2 months. Barrel #2. Bottle 58 filled by DT. Chardonnay in color. Smell is lightly fruity with some higher alcohol notes. Flavor is a touch hash, with corn flavor present. There is a touch of smoke, but also an ashy flavor. Finish is mild vanilla, and earthy. I've had the 12/mo aged as well, and it is a different beast. Much more subtle, complex, and mellow. Still, for being only 4.5/mo. this whiskey is superior to many distilleries that age for 2-3 years and charge more.
