The aroma presents some distinct scents: apricots, oak, tobacco, and anise. On the palate, it is wonderfully smooth and sweet. The apricot flavor is evident, accompanied by peppermint and brown sugar. At 91.2 proof, it makes for a pleasant neat pour with a gradual, sustained, warm finish.

Prominent cherry flavors and a slight numbing sensation on the tongue. The taste profile is comparable to Woodford Reserve, but the barrel and aging methods appear to create the distinction.
Strong coffee and caramel flavor with many deep undertones of rich fall flavors - maple, toffee. Not much of an aftertaste, but very enjoyable.
Another instance of a $50 sourced spirit that is overhyped into a $100 letdown. Shame on you Michters.
A quintessential Michter’s. It boasts wonderful persistent cinnamon flavors. I’m pleased to add this to my collection.
Candied fruit and burnt sugar dominate this.
