Nose
Subtle nose with caramel notes; minimal detection of the wine and cherry cask finish despite the partial finishing claim
Palate
Smooth and mellow with good flavor; caramel notes present; bourbon character comes forward clearly without being overwhelmed by the cask finishing
Finish
Very smooth despite the 94 proof; slight bitterness on the back end but not off-putting
Pleasant
A well-balanced, approachable bourbon collaboration that respects the base Jim Beam product while adding subtle finishing nuances.
