Color: Golden Amber Nose: Vanilla | Caramel | Light Oak Very characteristic bourbon nose. Inviting with minimal ethanol for the proof. Nothing stands out. Palate: Medium mouth feel. The nose continues into the initial sip with vanilla and caramel mingling with rye spices. A little more oak here than noted on the nose. Finish: Nice smooth finish with rye spice and increasing but not overpowering oak. A slight sweetness remains.
