The nose is pleasant with hints of leather and sawdust. The palate has sweet caramel and smoke with a touch of vanilla and a hot spice. It finishes quickly with a brief burn. I'd estimate this is around 45% ABV and could benefit from a bit more aging. Overall, it's a pretty good bourbon, but it likely needs more time to mature. I would consider buying it in the $30 price range. The current price of $45 is a bit steep.

Spicy at the start, with warming spices in the middle, and banana in the finish.

I disliked the flavor and found it had a bit of burn.
Decent, comparable to a leisurely Sunday drive.
