NEAT NOSE - Vanilla, Caramel, and Oak PALATE - Thin, almost watery mouthfeel. The nose transfers to the palate, but there is an incredible balance to this whiskey even if the notes on the palate come through faintly. The oak is the most prominent note, but it is not overly tannic. It’s smooth and sweet and a delight on the palate. This could be a daily sipper, especially at the price. FINISH - Medium/Smooth BUY? - Absolutely. BUY AGAIN?? - Yes. Shelfer! **My first bottle of this was overly tannic. It tasted like drinking black tea aged in a barrel. It was terrible. This is only my second bottle, but I haven’t heard many other people have experiences like mine, so don’t discount it if that is your experience.
