This is a 97 not 90! Possibility the best bourbon I've ever tasted. The 2013 & 2015 are good but not up to the standard the 14 set! The nose is heavy molasses and black cherry. Leather and clove are softly present. The taste is incredibly complex with a multitude of flavors exchanging places. Oak and fruitcake flirt for the lead only to give way to brown sugar and tangerine. Touch of cinnamon heat. Every mouthful brings new tastes and surprises as flavors bud and mix. WOW The finish is long and warm. Spice tickles the teeth and gums while the full taste dances on. This powerhouse should be enjoyed neat but a drop or two of branch would be OK for the ladies.
