Second time tasting thing bourbon after few months in between tasting. First time was not found of it like was a 6.5 to me but this time I actually enjoyed it very much. Nose: Spicy and sweet. Toasty oak and a touch of rye with caramel sweetness. Palate: Full and complex love it! Notes of nut oil, a touch of spice and dark chocolate, a little spice and charred oak. Finish: Long with a touch of dryness, nut oils and vanilla spice. Overall: would not rate this whiskey less than a 8 maybe 8.2. For the buck gives you the bang, rich bourbon in flavor without going broke lol that's your bottle. It can compete with woodford reserve despite being a somewhat cheaper pour so I do not regret buying it and will purchase another bottle once this one is done, to keep it in my boose cabinet as it does deserve a place there.
