Nose: Butter, corn meal, vanilla pudding.
Palate: reminded me of creamed corn on a slice of rye bread. Very thick viscosity. This is a young whiskey which has that can of cream corn, mashy taste out front. Needs some time in the barrel to gather up all of the spicy, woody notes, and temper all of that corn.
Finish: Earthy. Tasted like topsoil on the finish and I wasn't a fan
Overall: Marginal whiskey at that. It is new and mashy, thick and syrupy. It is not horrible but not my favorite.

Some of your descriptions remind me of tequila styles, with their agave still very present or a lot of syrupy character.
Sounds like the "friday night" bottle we mixed with soda as kids. Probably best left to them as well!
