This bourbon taste's like a memory. It tastes of hay and cinnamon red-hot candy. To be more specific it tastes like the smell of an old hay barn and cinnamon red-hot candy. As it hits your tongue it is old dry hay, the old metal tools stored inside the barn, the old dry dirt floor, and the old dry barn wood. It finishes with the red-hot candy on the way down with a small kentucky hug. A sip of this is like eating a bag of red-hots while sitting in the hay loft of grandpa's old barn. Very unique flavor and very good.
