Nose
Fruity with nectarines, peach, and fruity pebbles. Cinnamon spice, caramel, honey, with nice oak aroma and barrel spice.
Palate
Spicy with honey sweetness rather than fruit sweetness, creating a spicy honey syrup. Second taste brings spearmint gum-like mintiness with bite. Very creamy with heavy texture and building spice on the back of the palate.
Finish
Medium to almost long finish with medium dryness. Spice sticks around with oak hanging on, nutty finish, and pop rock sensation that sizzles on the back. Root beer candy notes emerge.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A well-layered, quality single barrel bourbon with impressive complexity and beautiful presentation that holds its own against established competitors.
