Very light and simple aroma. Initial taste is not impressive and flat. Adding few drops of water makes this drink almost too light and airy. Aftertaste is the far better than the smell or the flavor with smooth butterscotch notes. The smooth aftertaste really lingers but in a pleasant manner. The finish is light and clean. Would recommend using a splash of patience when sampling this bourbon. Was not impressed by first few sips but really improved over time. The bourbon opens up after 10 minutes. Onced aired, very easy and lightly floral bourbon to drink. I can see myself finishing half of the bottle while enjoying a mild cigar. Initial profile 79/100. Overall score 94/100.
