Overall
Score
8.6
Nose
Things start with milk chocolate, runny caramel and oak spice, then French toast and vanilla-flavoured pancakes topped with fresh blueberries.
Palate
Though surprisingly tame for such a high strength, with more chocolate, caramel and a touch of spice, water brings out a fragrant fruitiness in banana chips and blueberry purée.
Finish
Ending on a spicy note with buttered corn and lightly done toast.
Comment
A solid breakfast Bourbon, but I would add water, and definitely serve it alongside pancakes.
