“There are pleasing aromas of caramel cookies, saddle leather, and baking spice on the nose. This bourbon is immediately smooth on the palate with flavors of dried apricots, orange zest, and candied walnuts before charred vanilla pokes through on the finish.”
Beverage Testing Institute 2023
“Clear light amber color. Aromas and flavors of salted corn bread, caramel apple, creme brulee with chocolate powder and orange zest, and vanilla and cinnamon with a round, crisp, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish with suggestions of oaky vanilla and baking spice, rooibos tea, cinnamon roll, corn bread and peach pie, and dark basswood honey. A well executed craft bourbon with loads of caramel, vanilla, cinnamon and other bakery shop flavors and aromas.”
