This as much flavor as I’ve ever got out of a 100 proof bourbon. This has it all, wonderful nose, coating mouthfeel, complex palate, and almost perfect finish. I get some fruitiness, honey, oak and a little leather that seems to go from nose to finish. The way the flavors mingle together really stands out. The only knock on this bourbon is that the finish is medium short, although it is extremely pleasant with no hint of ethanol. I’m a proof hound, but this is as good as a bourbon gets at 50% abv.
