Nose
Cinnamon and black pepper with dried fruit notes (plums, raisins), citrus lift, caramel and vanilla base. Pleasant and fairly sweet with good barrel influence.
Palate
Sweet entry transitioning to mid-palate spice of cinnamon and black pepper. Dried darker fruits (plums and raisins) with a faint medicinal touch. Smooth and buttery mouthfeel.
Finish
Short to medium finish. Clean and pleasant without lingering.
Overall Score
3.8 / 5
A well-balanced, sessionable straight bourbon with appealing spice and fruit notes that shows refinement for its youthful age.
