Initial burn is forward, with sweetness in the back. Woody with some smoked caramel and a slightly honey-like finish at the very end. After a few sips, a flavorful burn settles towards the back half of the tongue. Definitely recommended.
This spirit is quite good. Compared directly to WT101, it's smoother and thinner, with a touch of maltiness on the finish. It lacks the kick I prefer in bourbon, but it's decent.
A fantastic everyday drinker. Notes of oak and caramel, very smooth. Comes in a beautiful bottle, and I love Big Red!
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
