This was a surprising good drink, for someone that is not a Bourbon fan. On the nose, the notes were typical bourbon with vanilla, oak and caramel... it reminded me a little of wild turkey 101, but it had some hint if mint. The palate was smooth, more caramel, but a little more mint and some grass, later I learned that his is more likely due to the rye influence in the mash. The finish was smooth, but I wish the ABV was a little higher, around 46% instead of 40%. Overall, a good drink.
