Appearance - deep copper/amber color. Brilliantly clear Aroma - Green apple, bubble gum/cotton candy, light caramel, very very light oak notes with slight smoke and vanilla. Smells very sweet. Taste: Candied green apple, slight smoky body with caramel and oak notes. High ethanol burn sneaks in at the end with a lingering aftertaste of oak and berries. Slight peanut brittle finish on the end. Mouthfeel- Light-bodied upfront with medium legs Finish: Very dry, astringent finish with notes of alcohol and oak. Not my favorite bourbon, despite my preference towards higher ABV’s. Tastes too fruity and too young. 2 Stars - I️ wouldn’t buy an entire bottle/would be disappointed if I️ bought a dram in a bar, but certainly wouldn’t dump it.
