Very sweet with subtle vanilla and spice notes. It would likely improve with more aging. It was definitely better on ice and my wife found it quite enjoyable very cold. I do not think I will buy it again. Too bad, since I really liked the idea of it being owned and operated by veterans.

Traces of vanilla and caramel. Not an expensive whiskey, but suitable for a casual weeknight.
Pleasant flavor with a vanilla/smoky finish that doesn't leave a harsh aftertaste.
Very smooth (minimal alcohol burn), somewhat sweet, but a bit underwhelming in flavor.
Very sweet vanilla flavor. Transforms a coke into a vanilla coke.
Awful. On track to be the worst bourbon I've experienced.
