Nose: Not as hot as expected. Very caramel, honey, vanilla sweet with a little bit of rye spice at the back. A little bit of earthiness that I can't quite define. Another go reveals a small bit of warm floral notes, but not much else. Palate: A nice bit of oak, cinnamon and other muddled spices on a bed of leather and honey. Much more cinnamon the second time around. Finish: Medium-long, hot and dry. The finish might be my favorite part - lots of oak, leather and corn dust sweetness. A bit of spice floats in and out as well. Conclusion: Not the most complex bourbon, but for the price, it's a nice one to keep around. It would probably be a bit sweet for my taste, but that nice earthiness and spice saves it.
