Dark golden/light amber color Nose shows some rye, spice and a nice pop of heat. Smooth mouthfeel, Sweet on the front transitions nicely into corn, burnt caramel and a hint of vanilla. Nothing really jumps out of the glass, but it's well balanced and easy to drink neat. Freshly hewn oak comes through on the finish with some dry cereal grains. For 14 bucks a bottle, this is a true bargain. Isn't going to blow your hair back, but it's very drinkable neat.
