Wow. Easily one of the best bourbons i’ve ever tried. From nose to finish, there’s an unmistakable aged/musty oak and old dusty library note that is fantastic. There’s leather, as well as some wonderful tropical fruits as well. The notes go on and on for the nose and palate... my list doesn’t do it justice. The finish is long, rich and extremely well balanced. If you have the pleasure of trying this, I consider you very lucky.
