Had a 1oz pour at a family member's home during Easter dinner. The oddly shaped glass I used really pushed the alcohol scent right into my nose, and it burnt a little. After my first sip I moved the glass and the scent was much more of a traditional bourbon smell. The taste was a little sweeter than the four grain bourbon, even though this was a higher proof. I believe that the corn heavy mash contributed to the sweeter taste. I would definitely like to have another taste of this the next time I am around that house.

Attended a tasting of this at Laws Distillery during the launch event. It was good, but nothing stood out as unique. It was a bit pricey (around $60, I believe). I purchased a bottle primarily because it was Batch #1 and it looks impressive on my shelf at home.
This one is quite intriguing. I get notes of lemongrass or a distinctly tart flavor.
