78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted barley
Nose
Solid traditional bourbon character with roasted corn sweetness, ballpark peanut shell, black pepper, and a touch of lavender from ambient candles.
Palate
Sweet and well-rounded with roasted corn forward, dried peanut shell notes, caramel, and a little peanutty quality. Not a lot of baking spice. Dry palate with minimal residual sweetness but a whisper of red fruit.
Finish
Black pepper on the back end with caramel notes. Dry finish without lingering sweetness.
Overall Score
3.8 / 5
A classic, well-rounded entry-level bourbon that represents the traditional Kentucky bourbon standard with solid balance and approachable character.
