So I was cooked earlier and I've discovered any smoke can really ruin a bourbon nose so I'm going off my last pour for nosing. It's caramel, nutty, sweet...more sweet than your knob creeks or bookers. Taste - thankfully no issue on flavor for me here. It's nutty, bready, caramel, slight red fruits. Mouth feel is rich enough but not the super oily. So it's nice sipping whisky. I don't get any off flavor profile elements and that's really impressive with this being a 30 dollar higher proof offering. Heck 2.0 for me, a very high score but I can't find anything off here. I also don't really get anything special. It's a very basic sweet beam product but clean and refined in a way.
