Good Lord this smells young and sweet. The nose reminds me of Balcones Baby Blue. It smells super light, which is weird because it's so dark. It has kind of a corn dust scent with a malted barley presence. Yeah. I guess it has a bit of that young malt whiskey scent too. The palate is largely what I expected, though there is a bit more complexity. It's sweet and kind of chalky with some cherry notes that are off-putting but not overwhelming. It tastes young, but not as young as something like E&J XO or Jose Cuervo. The corn sweetness is clearly there and so is the malted barley. The rye is detectable, thankfully balancing the whole thing out. The wheat is much harder to place and frankly is only beneficial here in that it cuts through the other flavors a bit to mellow out the youngness.
