Everything you want on the nose. Caramel, oak, spice. It’s like warm banana walnut bread with a maple syrup. Absolutely heavenly. The palate follows exactly as the nose hinted to. There an immediate hit of sartenes age spice with a not too heavy alcohol feel. It coats the mouth well and stays for what seems forever. The finish turns to holiday spices followed by more sweetness and a long finish that brings out the Kentucky hug. A near perfect pour.

Exceptional nose - cherries and light spice, very inviting. Palate is medicinal with notes of cherry and dark chocolate. Light and spicy. Smooth finish, very well done.
One hell of a bourbon with notes of caramel, vanilla, chocolate, cherry, corn, oak, pepper, cinnamon, mint, cloves, maple syrup, and pecan pie.
Amazing! Deep caramel and vanilla. Lots of wood
