N: Copper penny, corn, ethanol, wood spice.
P: Sweet corn, caramel, vanilla, hint of dried red fruit, hint of coffee.
F: Dried red fruit, dash of oak, a scintilla of spice. About the weakest bourbon finish I can think of, aside from turning actively bad. Just not much here.
Wanted to try a bourbon name I hadn't tried before. I've flirted with Jefferson a few times - who hasn't - but never took the old bastard home before now. This is about as basic of a bourbon profile as you can get. There's nothing wrong with it, but nothing particularly right about it either. Plays everything safe. And is completely forgettable as a result. The smoothness and approachability would play better at about a $10 lower price tag.

I’d pay $12 for a bottle
Stuff is lame
I’ve yet to meet a Jefferson’s that didn’t taste slightly watered down and basic - you hit it on the head
