Revisited this in Dec 2020. Noted more barrel char on finish, and a note of mint/rosemary up front. Upped to 3.5. will be a standard on my bar as it's a great daily always available value sipper Terrific value bourbon. Notable deep color. Nose shows vanilla, burnt caramel,rye hay funk and oak. Somewhat sweet front, well rounded, finishes hot and carries some notes of fall spices. More vanilla. A Hint of light tobacco, but that could be from last night's cigar.
