The nose is inviting, with sweet fruit and citrus notes, along with a touch of caramel and bread yeast. Although thin, the palate is pleasant with notes of cola, baking spice, and cocoa. With dry oak present throughout, the finish is quite drying despite some great marshmallow and caramel notes
While simple, the experience was compelling enough to keep me going back to it, a frontier-lite experience that comes across as a perfectly pleasant Sunday sipper rather than something.
My score for this whiskey places it in the category of solid expression, tastes good, but not distinguished enough to bump up a star. Still, you won’t find me sad to be drinking it!
