Tasting Notes

Great bourbon with something in the body that is almost chalky like a play-dough. I mean I rated it highly and would definitely have this as a daily drinker if it wasn't rare as hell. The finish in particular was like a bit-o-honey candy, yum.

Such a heavy vanilla and butter that I love. There is a touch of acetone but not in a way that I don't want to just keep this scent around me.

Palate

Smooth and fast to the finish. Just a hint of alcohol and off to aromas. I likely could have let this breath a bit to open it up more, but it was not a night for patience with a bottle.
