Too be honest, I couldn't vibe with this whiskey. There are some nice flavors here. The nose has some maple and spice. The taste has dusty corn, pepper, mint, and oakiness from the barrel. But there's an artificial taste to this too. The fruit on the nose and taste feels like artificial flavoring like those fruit-shaped hard candies I use to get at elementary school. It leaves a dry, chalky feeling in my mouth, and an after taste I can't get over. It's unique, but its not for me. I think I'll make this a mixer and revisit it when it has a chance to open up from oxidation.
