Nose: Wet wood, floral, chocolate covered fruits, brown sugar. Classic bourbon notes of caramel and vanilla gradually appear after sitting in the glass for a few minutes.
Taste: Sweet and oaky. Oak and fresh juicy dark fruits on the entry with a light hit of spice and pepper. Very round, balanced, but bold flavors. Occasionally I get notes of milk chocolate, hazelnut, bright tropical fruit. Texture is thin and smooth.
Finish: Woody finish with slight bitterness. Short.
Very enjoyable. This has a more interesting nose than most bourbons. The taste is a bit generic but feels a bit mellower and smoother than other bourbons without sacrificing the big bourbon flavor. Nothing amazing but does nothing wrong. I think for the price this is a good non-generic bottle to keep around for casual sipping with friends.
