Better than expected. I only picked this up because there were only 6,000 bottles produced (so I bought 3). I'd read some bad and not so bad reviews so I wasn't expecting much. Pleasantly surprised. You can definitely taste the heavy Rye influence. Although I can still taste the vanilla & burnt sugar.

Incredibly smooth with its notes of butterscotch making it a favorite — I just wish it were available in stores. Don't overlook it if you happen to see it during your travels.
3/21/18 Nose: Brown sugar, baking spices, orange zest. Palate: Tastes like caramel candy, orange zest, cinnamon, and licorice. There is a moderate to heavy alcohol burn.
Great bourbon. Surprisingly smooth for 105 proof. Notes of caramelized sugar, vanilla, and raisins. The finish is crisp, refreshing, and light.
2016 - leaves a coating on the glass.. the taste is less substantial than its appearance suggests. It has a beam-like profile with some spice and vanilla.
Excellent. The 2016 limited release is comparable to the new BMH Oregon. It has a distinct cinnamon flavor, as if it were added.
