So excited to finally open this bottle and… my bday month is coming up so, why not!? Tried neat. To the nares it’s floral and fruity with notes of cocoa, wood, toast, vanilla, caramel, fruit cobbler, orange, cheesecake, crème brûlée, candied apple, sweetarts, pixie dust. On the palate it’s initially dry then toasty with notes of wood oak, pecan, & char. This is a complex and delicious bourbon. I do however, get much more complexity to the nose vs palate. I plan to add a couple drops of water next tasting to open it up and see what new notes I get… exciting times ahead!
P.s. Wow.. the legs on this bourbon are sexy.
