  • There’s a light sweetness and oak influenced caramel flavor which leads to a medium length and dry finish. A few drops of water takes the edge off what is an otherwise hot sip.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Alcohol, acetone, and wheat/corn. Smells a bit too much like JD #7 for comfort. Syrupy, sugary, "I should probably be mixed with coke" notes.

  • Taste:

    Young. That's all there is to say. It's young, astringent and generally unbalanced. Corn overload. Might prefer to drink Mellow Corn. I think the only way to win, is not to play that game.

  • Finish:

    Corn. Corn. Did I say corn? Nail polish. Regret.

  • Overall:

    I don't know what this cost, and I don't know if its supposed to be good, but yikes, it's bad. Unfortunately, I think this is a prime example of young craft product.
