$55 - Michigan. Nose (Neat): Leather, nutty, woodsy, alcohol, light vanilla and a soft sweet note. Nose (Ice Ball): Leather opens up to leather and tobacco. Lighter nut, alcohol and oak notes. Vanilla and sweetness are more noticeable. Slight floral note now present. Palate (Neat): First sip provides a medium burn from tongue to chest. Second sip moves on to a leather and toasted oak, followed by vanilla, anise, floral and a slight sweet kiss. The viscosity of the whiskey coats the mouth nicely, so the vanilla and sweet notes build throughout the glass to catch up to balance with the other flavors. Finish is smokey sweet. Note - I prefer this over ice to cut the burn and strength of all the flavors. It softens all the flavors, but all are still very present to enjoy.
