Nose
Cherry notes with rice spice tickling the nostrils; cherry juice and brown sugar; butterscotch and creamy character; sweet with nice balancing oak; buttery overall.
Palate
Cherry and buttery notes mirroring the nose; butterscotch and creamy candy (Werther's original soft caramel); rye spice building throughout the sip; rye muffin with hot butter and cherry preserves; little bit of bitterness on the back end similar to pecan shell bitterness; brown sugar throughout; oily mouthfeel; rye spice providing warmth.
Finish
Medium to long finish; bitterness carries through and sticks with the palate; the rye spice and Georgia heat create a warming finish; sticks around on the mouth.
Enjoyable
A well-crafted Southern bourbon with a beautiful bottle and excellent value that delivers consistent cherry and butterscotch notes with spicy rye character and a warming finish, making it an approachable everyday sipper.
