Lovely fruit driven entry, with lots of cherry, vanilla and mild char. A medium body with a full mouthfeel. Warming, and introspective. A perfect bourbon for a chill autumn's evening. The finish goes on and on, with more of the dark cherry staying until the very end. Quite approachable at only 100.58% proof, this is easily a friendly sipper that only needs a slight hint of water to open it up.
