Rated high as a wheater. Closer to 4 as a whiskey in general...I know I specific and anal. N: Sweet spice and slight fruity. No not like fruit punch dang it P: spice and vanilla and then cherry comes through. Think vanilla cream soda with a cherry on top. F: Dry and sweet, little burn. Probably the best part of the dram....as usual. You can almost taste sweet creamed corn as it lingers. Beautiful whiskey. If you get a chance to try it, do so. If you don't, your loss.
