Nose: Honey, Smokey, Bread Taste: Spicy for a 86 proofer, subtle oak flavor comes through. Get some hints of vanilla and baking spices. Finish: It finishes like a mature bourbon that sticks with you. The spice stays with you and it is warm, but not overpowering. The spice and warmth give way to baked bread, peanut, and banana notes.
