On the nose I get a sweet cherry, honey, and oak blend. It's more of the same on the tongue, and would be too sweet for my taste if the oak taste didn't cut it a little bit and give it bit of a finish that lasts for a decent length of time. All in all, this is a good sipper for the price. I prefer makers for a budget wheated bourbon, but can't complain about this at the price point. Would buy again.
