60% corn, 36% rye, 4% barley
Nose
Sweet caramel and vanilla with notes of marshmallow cream puff. Hints of fruit (like opening a fruit cup) and a subtle spice reminiscent of cinnamon.
Palate
Sweet with prominent caramel and vanilla flavors. Balanced profile with a noticeable presence of toasted oak and campfire notes. Touches of honeycomb cereal and s'mores character.
Finish
Medium-length finish with sustained oak presence from the toasted French oak barrel finishing. Marshmallow and caramel linger with warm, toasted characteristics.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A well-balanced, toasted French oak-finished bourbon that delivers extra sweetness and oak integration at a solid value price point.
