NOSE - Immediately as I sniff this pour, I prepare myself for dissapointment. I have to darn near allow the bourbon to run up and touch my nose just to pick up any notes from the aroma. Nevertheless, I do pick up very faint notes of caramel and oak.
PALATE - Still disappointed. After I swirl the bourbon around in my mouth, all I pick up is faint notes of caramel.
FINISH - A completely unexpected turn of events. On the finish, there is an explosion of caramel, cinnamon, honey, and oak! Certainly not what I was expecting, but this one took me for a surprise! Medium finish, no burn.
BUY? - Absolutely. I hope they continue to release these outside of Kentucky. I was surprised to see this im Texas, knowing that these have been exclusive to Kentucky.
BUY AGAIN? - Yes. This is a great value at the price and an amazing sipper.
