I wish I knew what I am tasting in this glass. I don't have my palate fine tuned yet but something is very forward in the flavor of this bourbon and I love it! Great just sipping neat
Worst bourbon I have drank, strange flavour hard to describe, famous grouse comes to mind but even it is superior to this ..avoid..
Strong drink but not very flavourful. Think must be young spirit. Lots of rye added to cover flaws IMO as very spicey for a bourbon
Nose: Caramel, light oak, dark honey, vanilla pods. Palate: Peppery spice, chocolate. Finish: Demerara sugar, heavy oak.
Not the worst bourbon I've ever had, but definitely a mixer at best. Tastes young and maybe a high rye content..?
