Nose: Weakest part of this bourbon. Alcohol dominates, has a bit of floral soapy smell. Some oak. (2/5) Palate: Nothing like the nose. Bits of burnt brown sugar, leather, tobacco give way to pepperiness. Very tasty and interesting. (4/5) Finish: Pleasantly caramel, lingers as it coats. Burn is medium and warming. All and all an above average finisher (3.5/5) If 3.5 were option that is where I would put it. I prefer the Prohibition 1920 which has a much sweeter nose and better developed flavors
