Balanced from start to finish, this is my any-day bourbon. It is easy to drink neat, can be great in cocktails, and a fantastic price MSRP for what you’re getting. Nose: bright with caramel, butterscotch, fruity. Palate: moderately rich with vanilla and spice. Finish: some warmth with rye cinnamon spice. Goes great with a cigar. Store selects of these bottles can be very good and I’ve scored those higher in the past.
