Nose - classic bourbon nose, apple, cherry, leather, vanilla, almond, mild cinnamon, light ethanol burn. Taste - peanut, caramel, vanilla, cherry, burnt brown sugar, moderately tannic, medium ethanol burn, finishing mildly sweet and spicy with a hint of leather. Overall, an amazing value for the price. Solid bourbon notes all the way through, but falls slightly short of higher-end offerings.
