Nose: Vanilla, a heavy yet rounded off barrel influence, some caramel apple and deep baking spices. Taste: More vanilla, but some sharp orange shows up to cut that woodiness some. Finish: Falls a little flat for my preference. It's a mellow end, some charred marshmallow. Overall: This is a pleasant whiskey and one that I loved early in my journey. It's still a staple for me, one that I keep in my rotation on days when I don't feel like an adventure and just feel like enjoying a solid drink. Does it change your world? No. But it's pleasant, friendly and a decent value at the price ($45ish).
