Nose
Spicy with prominent cinnamon, caramel, raisin toast, and oak notes; fruit-forward with a bit of toast character.
Palate
Upfront spice and oak with a tannic, drying character; sweetness that coats the tongue with raisin and cinnamon toast; mineral and fig notes with a Dr Pepper-like spice and pepper tingle; medium mouthfeel without harshness at 100 proof.
Finish
Medium finish that sits on the palate; drying backend with lingering tannic character from six years of oak aging.
Very good
A well-crafted Missouri straight bourbon with excellent spice and oak integration, delivering a fair value at $60 with a character that rivals larger distillery bottled-in-bonds.
