Nose
Grape jelly, Smuckers jam character, deep brown sugar, no gasoline effect despite high proof
Palate
Mid-palate bomb with intense flavor; all sides of tongue dripping with salivation; concentrated center-palate impact; chewy texture; lots of texture and depth
Finish
Long and textured with lingering intensity
Remarkable
A powerfully balanced high-proof bourbon delivering an intense mid-palate burst of jammy fruit and complexity without heat, with remarkable texture and salivary engagement.
