Nose
Traditional Kentucky straight bourbon notes with freshness and lightness from the Muscatel finish. Orange blossom, honeysuckle, stone fruits like apricot and peach, citrus, and a spring-day brightness.
Palate
Approachable and nuanced with a tiny bit of sweetness on the back of the palate. Well-balanced, softened by the Muscatel finish, making it drinkable and complex simultaneously.
Finish
Softened and enhanced by the white Muscatel barrel finish, adding another nice layer without overwhelming the bourbon.
Overall Score
4.2 / 5
A well-constructed, approachable bourbon finished in Muscatel that strikes an excellent balance between complexity and accessibility.
