Nose

At first, there’s some cherry cola cubes, then a bit of popcorn, damp wood, and maple syrup.

Palate

Lighter than I imagined it would be from the nose and given its strength. Quite gentle, some nutty notes alongside the cherry cough syrup and molasses.

Finish

A delicate spice around the front of the tongue but well integrated.

Comment

A surprisingly soft-style bourbon with good oak ageing and nice rounded sweetness.
