A potent aroma of caramel and orange peel. The palate is initially sweet and somewhat fiery, transitioning to candied apples. I detect a subtle hint of curaçao in the background. As the flavor subsides, I taste toasted marshmallow, but it's not exceptionally oaky or smoky. The flavors persist for a while, but the finish fades somewhat weakly. It lacks significant complexity, but is enjoyable nonetheless. I suspect more time in the finishing barrels and/or less of the TN whiskey would have allowed more intriguing flavors to develop.

Intriguing aroma, featuring a touch of heat. It's sweet. The palate reveals vanilla and some oak. Remarkably smooth, with faint smoky hints.
The nose is powerfully alcoholic with notes of banana and caramel. The palate is velvety with toasted oak. A delicate oaky end.
