Nose - Oaky, barrel aged vanilla, hint of bananas, caramel, cocoa nib bitterness. Taste - Oaky vanilla caramel, nice cinnamon spice, light fruity bitter like very unripe plantains. Finish - Lingering cinnamon burn that transitions into a lightly drying oaky vanilla simple, the caramel richness is gone and is replaced with a lightly bitter fruity tartness. Score - 71/100 Final Thoughts - This is a very inoffensive bourbon and to a certain extent kind of reminds me of a higher proof Jack Daniel's. It has this odd banana-like quality in addition to the typical "bourbon" notes, although this one seemed a bit on the oaky side which I normally don't mind, but it just seemed a bit boring. This isn't bad neat, but I think I'll delegate this one to mixing or maybe baking into my banana bread as it already has hints of banana in it. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - No Would I buy a bottle? - Not again, good but there are better/more interesting bottles in this price range
