- Nose
- Delicate, with rich oak, barbecued oak, and savory notes. Sweet red fruit like cherry, vanilla icing, sugar, and mellow cigar smoke. Hints of linen and tart apple. Light aromas of dried mango, cocoa, fruit, and spiced peach. Honey, oak, vanilla, and brown sugar, well-balanced.
- Palate
- Round, supple entry with a medium body. Notes of caramel, nuts, and brown spices. Medium thickness mouthfeel. Stronger, drying oak with slight smoky and soft cigar smoke accents. Sharp orange peel and a soft texture. Flavors of honey, oak, and tobacco. Stone fruit, like strawberry or raspberry.
- Finish
- Lengthy and enveloping. Decent amount of oak, sometimes borderline bitter. Tart orange oil, dry leather, and tannins. Medium-long, balanced, and dry with a lingering tingle.

Cherry and tart apple give this bourbon an easy fruit appeal, with orange peel adding a sharper edge. The drying oak sounds like it may take over a little, but there’s plenty here to keep the fruit interesting.

Rich oak and sweet red fruit give this bourbon a warm center, while orange peel brings a sharper edge. The dry, tannic finish and sometimes borderline-bitter oak sound like a real counterweight; I’d prefer the fruit to stay in front.
