Overall: I may be a bit of a heaven hill fan boy at this point, I have been really impressed by everything of theirs I have tried. This is a bargain at 30 bucks! Imagine if Larceny and Heaven Hill BiB had a baby: The wheaty sweet smoothness from Larceny, and all the chocolate compelxity from the age of HH BiB. For a few bucks more than Larceny, and about half the price of HH BiB? Deal.
Nose: Nutty white chocolate. Hints of banana. Sweet, but not off-putting.
Palate: Spice right up front that quickly flows into dark chocolate. As the glass dwindled down, banana bread became very present.
Finish: Medium. Longer than anticipated with a warm molasses flavor

I wish they would do a proofed up version of this, not quite barrel proof, but something more akin to Weller antique. Beat out the Buffalo Trace hype by offering a solid alternative.
Sipping on this right now. I concur.
