Notes: It came as no surprise to me how much I enjoyed this bourbon. I the love notes of cinnamon and baking spices I get out of this bottle. It is perfect for cooler weather. I love drinking it neat, but a splash of water would open the palate up to bring some more of the spices forward. This is a great bourbon to keep out for drinking with close friends
