The initial bottling was light on Oregon Oak character, but recent bottles show significantly more influence. Rich tobacco, plum, candied fruit, and damp wood. It seems to have reached its mature state and is delicious.

This spirit perfectly embodies classic bourbon characteristics, but with less caramel and more malt and barley. Cereal grains are prominent, alongside vanilla and oak notes, with a medium body and a clean finish.
It began with a smooth, sweet sensation, followed by a mild burn as it was consumed. Oak notes were subtly present on the finish. Quite enjoyable.
Spicy cinnamon candy. Rich and satisfying.
Tastes of vanilla, plum, and apricot.
