The bottle's design is appealing. The initial scent is predominantly sweet. After a few servings, the taste is largely sweet, featuring notes of caramel and cherry. The conclusion is moderately sweet with a hint of warmth at the end.

2025 - 151 proof. It wouldn't let me add this to the system. Drinking it neat, I detected caramel, fruit, vanilla, and nuttiness. It's alright.
I like the bottle. Smooth, reminiscent of Woodford. I also detect hints of cherry.
