For a bourbon that's so difficult to find, with secondary prices that are difficult to swallow, it's funny to know that the favorite way for Elmer himself to drink this was with 7Up. (I myself have tried it in pineapple juice, and it's outstanding). Pale burnt orange with a subtle rosy hue. Nose with cedar, sandalwood, ripe peaches, and clove, along with a cool eucalyptus note. Palate has a light but noticeable viscosity, shows chocolate covered cherries, honey, creme brulee, rosin, and spicy cinnamon stick, before finishing with leather and vanilla. Light bourbon burn, consistent with 90 proof. Complex, with notes atypical of your everyday bourbon. N.B. All spirits tasted neat in a Glencairn glass.
