Nose - nutmeg, cinnamon, tobacco, leather, clove, dry vanilla and caramel, apple, cherry, brown sugar, yeast, corn, light barrel spice, moderate ethanol burn.
Taste - sweet tobacco, leather, nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, caramel, brown sugar, vanilla bean, corn, apple, cherry, moderate alcohol bite, finishing quick with caramel, rye spice, and corn sweetness.
It hits all the right high rye mashbill bourbon notes, but it’s nothing special, particularly given the high price. I think it would benefit from a higher proof.

I think someone's done a good job of marketing for this one because it always feels like one of those premium ones you can never find like St. Nick, but the ratings never indicate that it is on the same level as those ones.
