  • By Josh Peters
  • This is a nicely balanced bourbon that’s heavy without being overbearing and without any killer heat. It’s a brooding and tasty whiskey I’m looking forward to drinking more of.

  • I like this, but it was much hotter than other batches I've had and that will unfortunately drop this a notch or so.

  • Nose:

    Honey, tobacco, caramel and cola. Rich nougat and vanilla cream. Light pepper influence.

  • Taste:

    Oaky, rich caramel. Medium to thick mouth feel, pepper, tobacco and thick tannins. Heat comes storming in.

  • Finish:

    Long, but very hot. Almost punishing. Oaky, dry pepper. Lots of tobacco, vanilla cream and some cherry cola.

  • Overall:

    I like this, but it was much hotter than other batches I've had and that will unfortunately drop this a notch or so.
