Nose: Carmel, oak, brown sugar and vanilla Palate: big flavors here. slight oak, barrel spice, toasted bread, dark sugars and Carmel and slight fruit zest. It’s really delicious. The finish is a long Kentucky hug with that 120 proof. Overall: the barrel the produce this particular set of bottle is outrageous. It’s a 5 for me. I’m not kidding it’s that good and dare I say this particular bottle is the best pour I’ve ever had.
