Nose - Very very light, not in a good way. Has some slight smoked oak and leather notes, but really nothing crazy. Palate - Same with the palate, lots of basic notes but very very light Finish - Overall kind of dissapointed in this, the lightness takes away from any complexity and flavor this should have.

Nose: Strong fruit and earthy Pallet: Dried fruits Finish: Lingering spice If this was available as a daily for $150 it would be on my normal list. If your looking for a thick heavy pour this is a good option.
Nose - light and bit earthy Palate - genuine smoky flavor, hazelnut, oak Finish - slight citrus notes at the end
An almost maple body with a ton of oak/wood. Vanilla finish with a perfect amount of spice
Had it at a work function. Rich, sweet, smooth. Really great bourbon. Well balanced.
This is the youngest Old Fitz I've had, but its still very flavorful
