The silken edges keep leading you down new flavor paths as you swing back and forth between the nose and the sip. What’s beautiful about this bourbon is you kind of get lost in it.

There’s a welcoming aroma of marzipan, blackberry, toffee, and fresh honey next to a real sense of pitchy, dry firewood.
