Neat. This is different. Funky. But in a good way. Not a typical bourbon. Almost a mix between a bourbon and Irish Whiskey to me. Nose is very approachable, no sign of the youngness or high abv. I get a lot of short bread cookie dipped in some dark caramel. The short bread notes are what take me to a Cask Strength Red Breast, but with these dark undertones.
Nice thick mouth feel. Lots of sweet notes and even some oak notes at first. Gives way to that short bread cookie and caramel. Caramel and oak on the finish.
I like it but I can understand why some are thrown off by it too. No regrets on the purchase. It’s expensive for what it is, but it’s kinda fun for its funkiness and uniqueness.
