I'm giving this another shot since I was so underwhelmed by it a week ago. I wanted to like it then but it was just another bourbon, maybe this time I'll find a uniqueness I missed last time. Nose: Orange peel and cherries. Oak and a bit of herbal spice, maybe mint and a tiny bit of anise. White pepper too, with slight vanilla. Palate: Thick, cool sweetness. Spicy, lots of cinnamon, clove and even a bit of nutmeg? Opens into sweet oak and mint atop corn sugar and oats. Finish: Medium length, mouthwatering. Almost buttery sweet with lasting spices. Tongue tingling for a while. A little orange peel at the end. Conclusion: Yet again, does not live up to the hype, though it's definitely tasty. I definitely like what the high rye mashbill provides in terms of spice and herbal notes.
