Nose - sweet butterscotch, brown sugar, vanilla, cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg, marked barrel spice, cherry, peanut, mild to moderate ethanol burn. Taste - butterscotch, pepper, sweet cherry, vanilla, apple, spicy barrel char, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, cocoa, moderate alcohol bite, finishing fairly quickly with pepper, cherry, and barrel spice flavors. A solid sipper, but unfortunately overpriced. This has all the classic bourbon flavors, but it’s a bit thin and has an underwhelming finish. I wanted to give this a 4+ and feel the nose and palate in isolation deserve it, but I think the disappointing mouthfeel and finish knock this down just below that.
