$40; Neck Pour; Tasted neat in a Glencairn; Rested 10 minutes. Pleasant scents of sweet vanilla, touches of green apples, hints of orange peel and an overall note that is somewhat floral at the fore, while fresh wet oak lurks underneath in the background; shows faint to no ethanol on the nose. On the palate it opens with an initial burst of sweetness -- vanilla intermingled with traces of orange and thin honey that appear after a slightly oily (not viscous) mouthfeel coating. The opening sweetness dissipates quickly as the short to medium (non-burning) finish transitions into more of a (pleasant) fresh vanilla oak aftertaste while it fades. Merits 3.75 to 4.0 stars if you can pick up the bottle at $40 or less; and agree with a previous reviewer that at prices of $50+ it would perhaps knock the rating towards the lower side of the range as other offerings may ratchet up the experience and provide better value. Still, I believe many would find this offering to be an easy, pleasing pour, and appreciate its refined finesse and elegant quality. While others who prefer bolder styled bourbons may find they would want a more pronounced profile with a heavier punch in the finish -- I for one enjoy the dram, however do wish the flavors held on and lingered just a little longer.
