Nose: Sweet caramel, Spice, mostly pleasant. Tongue: For a wheated bourbon, I get none of that sweetness you get with most wheated Bourbons, but it's a bit spicey. This is 110.9 proof, very woody, very leathery, very good. Finish: It leaves a little burn on the tongue, but not much of an after taste. A little water or ice seems to bring out some wood flavors, and a little sweetness.
