I haven't had this one in a while. I was reminded that this is always a good pour. The nose is sweet with notes of banana pudding, caramel, maple and oak. It also has a mineral note that I couldn't describe until someone called it "Flintstone vitamin". Now that's all I can think of. However, not a deal breaker for me. Palate is sweet corn, buttered banana bread, and eggnog, balanced perfectly by a healthy dose of oak. The 90 proof is perfect. Nice warming finish without being hot. Paired this with a Te Amo Cigar and it brought this incredible sweet/oak note to the front. I will have to experiment with some different pairings. I didn't think the Dickel would stand up to the cigar, but it surprised. For mid-$20 price tag, this one is miles ahead of Jack.
