Biased review. Have never seen this bourbon ANYWHERE for sale. Got my hands on a bottle from a family member and the exclusivity may have clouded my judgement. On the nose, cherry, syrup,vanilla and oak. A rich aroma. On the palate, very spicy with an upfront bang of cayenne pepper with intermediate periods of pomegranate and cherry with a very woody flavor. The cayenne comes full circle in a spicy finish!
