Quick disclaimer: If your take is different, yours wins. Right after the pour, this showed a very classic bourbon profile: caramel, vanilla, oak, and spice. At around 5 minutes, it improved with strong orange and vanilla, medium caramel, light oak spice, herbs, clove, and peanut. The palate had sweet oak, side-of-the-tongue tannin, peanut, and a little orange coming back on the retronasal. But after 10 minutes, the orange started fading and the herbal note became slightly vegetal. By 15 minutes, the whiskey basically collapsed in the glass. The nose lost most of its aroma, and the palate became very simple: bourbon sweetness, oak tannin, bitterness, and peanut. By 20 minutes, there was almost nothing left on the nose except maybe faint orange. The first 5–10 minutes were decent, maybe 82–83 points, but the drop-off was too severe. As a full neat tasting experience, this lands at 75/100 for me. Final thought: Front-loaded bourbon. Decent quick pour, but not something I would sit with and analyze.
