The nose carries classic bourbon smells of vanilla, coconut and caramel, but also packs a nice citrus punch. On the arrival, there's some decent heat, black pepper and more vanilla. Orange peel and barrel spices dominate the mid-palate, creating excellent complexity and balance. The finish is dry, and brings back the coconut and pepper, while introducing dark chocolate, barrel char and some nuttiness. A truly fantastic bourbon at a fairly affordable price.
