Flat out did not care for this bland, bleh of a bourbon. It tries to have some flavors, it really does, but they come off as only a weak attempt and the aromas picked up on the nose are stronger than anything your tongue with pull out of your dram. Maybe I'm just used to bourbon that puts hair on your chest at this point (or really anything else that's halfway decent). Labeling it as a "beginner's bourbon" may be the only way to label it, other than "don't buy again".
