Nose - sweet orange and cherry, vanilla, muted cinnamon, oak, caramel/toffee, butter frosting.
Taste - mild cinnamon, cocoa, very oaky, coconut, sweet while in the mouth, finishing woody and sour.
This bourbon is good, although I feel the oak overpowers the more subtle, complex flavors. I’ve tried this a few times now and found that it really opens up with a few drops of water and some extra time to air before drinking it. The aromas you get on the nose really begin to come through.
