2nd time review from my same bottle.
Nose - Sweet, honey, fruits. Also get some orange that was suggested by a fellow drinker after he mentioned it.
Taste - Honey up front with a lot of fruit. Think sweet fruits with sugary notes as well as honey and caramel. Finishes crisp with a light bite from the 107 proof that it is. Quite good and unique.
Overall and value - Great for a 60 - 80$ bottle. Label is very cool and carries the "pappy" name brand. Secondary price there is just no way. If I am being honest based on my palate I would say this is a top 10 bourbon I have had being that it is so unique and comes with the wow factor that cannot be ignored, but at the same time I hate to say it that I have had bourbons from the 30 - 50$ range I enjoyed more. Nonetheless its a great pour and a great add-on to any bourbon drinker's collection.

Congrats on finding a bottle in primary! Those secondary prices are just ridiculous.
