A worldwide favorite, especially when creating mixed drinks with a sophisticated, contemporary flair. Hints of pear and apple compliment floral aromas and mix with a taste of honey and spice. Smooth and mellow with a unique, long and soft finish. 80 proof.

Review by Weednwhisky
- Color
- dark hay, gold, lots of caramel I suppose
- Nose
- Toffee, Caramel, Corn, a little Vanilla
- Body
- Kind of Empty though thick on the tongue
- Palate
- A little vanillalike though mostly caramel
- Finish
- very short, comparable to other young burbouns in my opinion (Jim Beam, J.D., even though I think this one is a little better than your standard Jack Daniels no7) again, very simple and short: it lacks complexity
Nice Burboun Whiskey but misses complexity.. I don't say this a lot but add some rocks

Review by Eye-lah Guy
- Color
- Amber red in the glass
- Nose
- Sweet corn and peach
- Body
- Aggressive with legs
- Palate
- Explodes on the palate with all out sensory attack of barbecued corn in an oak-fire pit, warm cinnamon apple crisp balanced with vanilla; thick-as-Kentucky-air grains as proud as the South.
- Finish
- The finish gets a bit lost amongst the palatial proceedings, but commands attention with a blast of spicy malt and rich figs
American whiskey at it’s best: bombastic, yet efficient-and sheer working class. As Americans, for $20 it’s the home-cooked meal grandma makes as opposed to spending way more dining out. And home is where the heart is.
