Nose - Alcohol soaked banana! Taste - Pretty thin, banana and vanilla. A little bit of alcohol burns. Follow-through - Doesn't stay around for long. Not much of a mouthfeel, or coating on the tongue Overall thoughts - I don't hate it, but I don't love it. It's definitely unique in that it is pretty mellow and has a banana note to it. Out of all of the big name brand American, Jack Daniel's is pretty good. I would rather buy Gentleman Jack to get the mellowness and fuller taste.
