Nose - surprisingly not a lot of heat, initially get a lot of light fruit - Juicy green apple, peer and cherries. Get the oak char on the back end and maybe a hint of orange zest.
Palate - medium but nice mouth feel. Coating and drying but not over dry. Get that initial fruity sweetness that quickly turns into a lot of vanilla and oak. Definitely hot but not too hot where you can’t sift through all the flavor.
Finish - medium to long finish. Pepper and alspice. Get the good ole Kentucky hug at the end.
Definitely one of my favorites.
