The nose provides a wonderful combination of citrus notes, sweet candied fruit, and a floral elegance.

The flavor is full of character and class, balanced by both sweetness and spiciness but with neither being overbearing. What I pick up here are sweet notes of caramel and honey, balanced by spicy notes of rye, oak, and ginger.

The finish is long and graceful, containing more spicy notes and a certain bitterness.

Overall, this bourbon is rich, balanced, and classy. Very enjoyable.
