Terry Williams 3.8

NEAT NOSE - Floral, Berries, Orange Peel, and Honey PALATE - Slight herbal undertones carried by honey. FINISH - Medium finish in length that leaves a ‘clean’, minty aftertaste that is pleasant. BUY? - This is decent. I think some more proof would have been lovely. BUY AGAIN? - Maybe not this release, but I may buy one with more age or a higher proof point.

Like a dusty pikesville. Has a lot of spice and wood notes but its still sweet. Nose reminds me of michters 10. Taste has oak on the mid palate then finishes spicy sweet and a little dry.
