The overwhelming flavor and nose is that of Sun-Maid Raisins, but with a little cherry in there, too. I like it, but it’s definitely not for everyone.

lenioja 3.8

Long finish, surprisingly good for such a young age. Might be a 4, need to drink more. When you’re young you get sad, but not so with this whiskey.

JStovall 3.0

I got cranberry upfront and finished more with caramel with a small amount of cinnamon spice. Decent pour for an 18 month old.

Daniel Emerson 3.5

Caramel, spice, orange citrus. Very young & hot but can tell it would have mellowed nicely due to its balance.

jwfrankman 1.5

Harsh. Altogether bad. Like a hot cough syrup, but without the medical benefits.

Steve Elliot 3.8

Caramel, spice, cranberry, and smoke. Very smooth for young bourbon.
