Nose: So on the nose it is as you would expect for this flavored whiskey. Big honey, with Sweet Tarts candy notes as well as caramel and a note of chai latte. So, in short, it smells very sweet!
Taste: Okay the palate matches the nose with honey sweetness, cotton candy notes, and a finish that is reminiscent of southern style sweet tea.
Opinion: Dang. This is sweet! It's not a bad thing; I would probably give a glass of this to someone who has never had a whiskey or strong liquor before. It's sweet and tasty, not complicated, and if nothing else I can use it as a sweetener in other cocktails or something. I read a couple previous comments about mixing this in sweet tea and I think I am definitely going to try that! This is not my favorite thing, but it's worth trying. Cheers!

Haha I'm working my way up, @LeeEvolved. You'll be happy to hear I'm done with flavored whiskey. It had a soft place in my heart because that's what my best friends got me when we went camping for my bachelor party. However, my palate has matured enough to realize these are becoming too sweet! Anyways, sorry for the rambling. Stay awesome!
Hey, thanks for that. I enjoy reading your stuff as well. I always appreciate those on here that take the time to write solid reviews. We just need to bring you over to the scotch side of things and keep you away from these flavored bourbons haha.
Haha Thank you @LeeEvolved. I appreciate you looking out for me! Luckily it was only a 50ml bottle I just happened to have. So I thought I might as well share my thoughts. Love your reviews man!
Lol, nice review. Your liver is too precious an organ to waste it’s life on stuff like this, though.
