Nose: the usual vanilla and caramel notes with a hint of fruits. Sweet smell on the nose Taste: like the nose, traditional bourbon taste - at least for me. Smooth vanilla and caramel-brown sugar up front. The sweet intro is prevelant throughout, then opens up with slight oak notes at the end. Finish: moderate finish with a light spice and heat. There is also a slight leather and oak finish that lingers into your next sip Overall: Your traditional bourbon that is a cut above of the rest for me. I enjoyed the EW White Label, so as a SiB this is a treat. This is my go to sipper. Hard to beat at msrp or close to. Sad that theyre only going to sell this out of Kentucky only from now one. Definitely will make a game out of asking for this when checking out whiskey from now on. If you see it at less than 35$, grab it and give it a try. Rating: 6.75/10- t8ke scale (almost makes 7 but not quiete. Still a great pick). 6 | Very Good | A cut above.
