Prominent oak notes, distinct cinnamon, and some vanilla. Very inviting on the nose; more floral and vanilla notes. The oak remains through the finish, accompanied by some maple. A very pleasing, even outstanding, Bourbon, bordering on exceptional but not quite reaching it. I'm satisfied with my purchase and would buy it again at $50.

Difficult to evaluate. Smells of freshly cut grass with a bitter finish. It's thinner than I anticipated for a 93-proof beverage. I favor the standard version.
Caramel on the nose, slightly harsh on the palate for 93 proof. Generally, it's decent.
A bit intense initially but finishes rather sweet. The flavor lingers for a considerable time.
Nice notes of cinnamon and rye spice – a bit watery but flavorful
