Nose
Prominent spice with cinnamon, raisin toast, and caramel notes. The oak is apparent and there's nice barrel spice coming through.
Palate
Spice and oak are upfront and serious with a dry character. The whiskey has an excellent mouthfeel with a delicious character.
Finish
Dry and tannic finish with fig notes.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A well-crafted Missouri bottled-in-bond bourbon with complex spice and oak character, excellent mouthfeel, and fair pricing that compares favorably to larger distillery offerings.
