Color is gold, medium to low viscosity, chill-filtered. Nose is medium strength, with hints of raisins, toffee, vanilla, and ripe fruit. Palate is rich and round, with notes of fruit, caramel, toffee, and oak. Bourbon barrel influence is definitely there but it is not overwhelming. Finish is short but nice with oaky and fruity notes and a touch of bitterness. A few drops of water in this 43% ABV dram opens more fruit flavors and rounds up the pallet, finish looses its bitterness. Overall a very nice and complex dram.
