Ex bourbon notes are covered with delicious sherry dry fruit notes. Floral notes is just floating in and out in between. Everything is just light not heavy.
American oak wood, charred, bitterness started to show on your palate a lot more intensely and vividly where it was hidden away on the nose. All the goodness of bourbon sugary notes and wonderful dry fruit sherry notes all started to fade away from foreground to background until you left with a bit dry and a bit bitterness almost like a black tea even and some spicy notes in your month.
Once you had couple of sip, sherry notes and American oak will be more prominent on the nose.
There is too much American oak notes in there for me to love it. I like it but I don't love it.
