Cery nice drink tastes better the the proof. Lots of wood some sweet with a nive finish and no bite reminfs me of williams sib 8 yr juice you could get for 40 bucks back in the day but thicker and more complex. Slight citrus when opened up with water. Very similar to eh taylor and same bottle? .

Toasted Sweet brown sugar, molases and cinnamon on the nose. Strong sugary sweetness upfront makes way to a buttery and smooth warmth, baking spice and a little heat on the finish. Sweet and warm, and a little heat of the proof at the end. Very tasty
This is really good for the price point. Perfect balance of everything I like in a bourbon; some character (i.e. not overly smooth), sweet, peppery...why are you still reading this - go get you some!
Little hot for the proof. Nose is better than the palate. The rye carries through
Nose: dried fruit, nutty and vanilla Taste: dried fruit , spice , nutty, creamy
Nose - Nuts Taste - Similar to nose, has a young bourbon alcohol burn
