The best part about this is the aroma. I normally find a lot of bourbons to be heavy on the wood and oak side, but this was a bit of an outlier. Even though it's spent quite some time wtih the wood, I don't get the full blast of oak upfront. Instead, it like having a cigar (not that I'd know...I don't smoke...but, if I did, I'd imagine it this way), while walking into a leather tannery located next to a bakery. Unlike most other bourbons, I'm getting a deeper complexity as well, similar to mezcal or scotch. I guess because of the double oak treatment? For the bourbon lover, this is a must have on your shelf. For the scotch lover---gotta try it. Thanks to GeologyJack for the generous sample! ( generous enough where I had to split it into two drams!). Thank you for the experience!
