The carameI is strong with this one.i give it 4 stars for the value it offers. The nose wafts caramel with honey and vanilla notes, and for my part im thinking just a hint of spice and raisin. The nose hides nothing and the pallet does nothing to surprise. It's not a bad thing. It starts with a serious sweetness. Caramel the corner stone again with honey and vanilla coming through. A slight bit of spice to reign the sweet. The finish is smooth and lingers with a nutty oak. This bourbon is good, and for the price should not be overlooked
