Standard copper color. Light butterscotch, vanilla and wood notes dominate the nose along with a hint of cotton candy and sweet mustard. First sip is bitter wood and tangy fruit, but later settles into a strong dry oak presence with a white pepper finish. Mouthfeel is medium with a comfortable burn on the upper back of the throat. This is a standard, middle of the road bourbon at a very comfortable price point... especially if you prefer your bourbon oaky and dry. 3.6.
