The aroma is very strong with tannic, oaky characteristics. The flavor profile is surprisingly different. Exceptionally sweet with notes of candied fruit and a maple chewiness. Very pleasant and easy to drink neat.
This is absolutely one of the top bourbons I've experienced. It's sweet, warming, and packed with taste. It meets all my criteria for an amazing bourbon. It's fantastic to witness the output from Illinois.
