I’m not a bourbon guy so this tasting gonna be a bit rough. I get slight notes of cherry and vanilla, there’s a heavier oak and char flavor as well as leather. The finish is a bit acrid and it’s not from the alcohol. the finish Isn’t very long, nor is it expectionally hot or spicy, but it’s a bit dry. I’m not a bourbon guy but this wasn’t something I’d probably ever buy to drink straight. Good for the price though.
