Nose: caramel apples, cherry, nutmeg, cinnamon, oatmeal raisin cookies Taste: reflects the nose with very prominent caramel apple notes This might be the best nose on any bourbon I've ever had and the taste is equally delicious. The lighter sweet notes are showcased perfectly. This bottle is really special and I'm going to savor every drop from it. Absolutely worth the price. This is a super high quality bourbon with incredible flavors at the perfect proof. Hell yes.
