Tasting Notes

👁️ Appearance

Medium to dark amber.

👃 Nose

Light nose, mostly vanilla. A little red fruit under the vanilla.

👅 Palate

This is good, big punch of flavor unlike the light nose. Candy sweet. A little bit funky. 120+ proof.

👁️ Blind Tasting Impressions

Very good. I'm thinking wheated bourbon.

🎭 Post-Reveal Thoughts (Revealed Jan 08, 2026)

That adds up too. Definitely better than it was freshly opened.

🎯 Pour Guess Results 25/75 (33%)
