Travelled to the office out of town. With a group, grabbed a burger and a whiskey. I selected as an after dinner nightcap. Limited notes given the non-ideal tasting conditions.
Quick hit notes:
N: Vanilla, baking chocolate, maraschino cherries, leather, butterscotch, cola, apple pie.
P: Medium bodied palate which delivers bitterness of dark chocolate, earthiness of leather and tobacco and sweetness of caramel and cola and spiciness of wood and ground cinnamon
F: Barrel char, black pepper, wood spices and cinnamon.
A rich pour full of opposing and complementary flavors. A bit of water opens the straight pour and gives it room to breathe. A worthy, good pour. I will seek again. [90/100][Tasted: 10/4/22]

This stuff is a bargain at $30's for 10yr age statement. Short finish is only drawback but well worth purchase
I’ve not tried this one, but just had the 13 this past weekend. It was hands down the best bourbon I’ve had. Now, I need to try this one
