Tasting Notes

About:

Appearance:
Dark amber in the glass, with heavy legs
Nose:
Sweeter flavors like vanilla and caramel are most prevalent, but the nose isn’t cloying, thanks to a solid oak bass note. After a few minutes in the glass, black cherry and a hint of toast make an appearance.
Palate:
Caramel and oak predominate on the palate, with a somewhat oily mouthfeel. Finish: Warm allspice pops out after swallowing, followed by more caramel. Wood lingers on the finish. Conclusion: This is an easy-drinking bourbon with a well-balanced flavor profile, but there’s nothing particularly interesting about it. I don’t have any real objections, but I also don’t feel the $50 price tag is justified. SCORE: 80/100
Finish:
Warm allspice pops out after swallowing, followed by more caramel. Wood lingers on the finish.
