Sweet and syrupy on the nose, with a good amount of oak. It has a higher viscosity and more dark sweetness compared to other Texas offerings, and is much better than the standard Angel's Envy. The Texas distillery did a great job with this port-finished bourbon.
It has oak and dark fruit notes. The palate is incredibly rich and fruity, with mocha being prominent in the middle. I also detected a hint of caramel drizzled cannoli for some reason. The finish is long and consistent.
Not as good as the sherry casked version. The base bourbon is much more evident, and the port notes are less pronounced. I was hoping for more wood influence and a smoother finish.
Baking spices are upfront, followed by candied cherries. A good, mouth-coating finish.
Beautifully balanced.
