Right off the bat, you can see how light this is from other bourbons. On the nose, the first thing that hits you is peanuts. This is a big flavor contributed by the Port barrels. Underneath the peanut flavors you get some nice walnut, caramel, and butterscotch. Past those flavors is the classic vanilla and floral notes that most bourbons have. I love the multilayered character of this bourbon a lot. On the palate, this has got to be one of the smoothest and easy-drinking bourbons I’ve ever had. It doesn’t have really any barrel bite. I wish the finish was a little bit fuller and longer, but other than that it’s a great bourbon and something that’s absolutely enjoyable to drink.
