Here we go! This is one of my absolute favorite bourbons. This is a welcome addition to my Whiskey Stash. It has a strong vanilla and oak smell. Bits of cinnamon and carrot cake give me a playful, nostalgic taste. Despite being a higher proof bourbon it is surprisingly smooth. It give that warm fuzzy feeling. The taste is sweet and spicy, almost like candy. I would mostly compare the taste and finish to a really creamy butterscotch.
