Deceptive to the nose, delicious in the mouth and a nice but short finish. First sniff gave a good bit of alcohol and then to pretty traditional bourbon smell of sweet and oaky, very smooth once you sip with caramel/fruity notes. The finish is where a lil burn comes in but it dissipates quickly back into the oaky flavor. I really like it and will certainly pick it up at retail when I see it. I’ve seen these way jacked up in price and wouldn’t recommend paying over 50, but if you find it under.....grab it
