This is a review of someone who prefers scotch to bourbon, so it might not be the best perspective for bourbon lovers. It's VERY bourbon. Nose is honey, caramel, fruity. Palate is overbearingly spicy. This is pretty much all I can feel. No woodiness, no dry fruits or nuts, no smokiness or peat... I keep looking for scotch in bourbons, which is not fair, but this is very much a bourbon and the bourbon lovers will love it. I would stick to Elijah Craig or Bulleit otherwise
