Nose Dry, almonds Taste Feels much dryer than some other bourbons. Tastes like toasted almonds. oak , sawdust, little bit of Butterscotch. Finish Very smooth, barely any finish. Leaves a unique nutty taste in the mouth. Conclusion Not unpleasant, very unique. 80 proof so goes down easy just like all basil Hayden. Nutty profile is what I'm left thinking about would definitely revisit again to see if my thoughts change.
