Neat. Neck pour. Love the bottle design. On the nose, I get tons of peanut. I might mistake this for a Booker’s blind. Nuttiness and oak really dominate at first. It does subside as you spend more time with it. Burnt caramel and jam emerge. With that oak and barrel spice wrapped around the nuttiness and jam, I am getting flashes of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. That is interesting.
Feels thinner on the tongue than I was expecting. Not watery but thin. Can’t escape this peanut butter and jelly sandwich comparison. Don’t get much distinction off the tongue, sweetness. But it sways dark on the swallow. Nuts, jam, and oak. Decent legs mold into a nice vanilla. Really drying my mouth right now.
I like it. If this opens up I will understand the positive reviews.
