Just wow! This bourbon has flavor - sweet pear, caramel, and molasses on the nose. The flavor is bold with red fruit, clove, cinnamon, and more pear - very thick mouth feel. This is what I expect out of a whiskey aged in Texas - big and bold. It is incredibly soft for something that is 115 proof - I get more burn from most 100 proof whiskeys. Definitely jumps this distillery to one of the best in the state.
