There's literally nothing to this but spice. No flavor, no pallette, just spice at the end. And not in a good way.

Good

When you come off of night shift, and you're back tonight, a little dram in the morning, will help you feel alright.

Super light color. Vanilla and citrus on the nose for me. Yup, this has to be Scotch. Doesnt taste like a campfire, so its one of those new Scotches. Maybe this year I will find another Scotch i like...but this isnt it.

Scotch on the nose, but not getting that in the mouth. Smooth, delicious, light fruitiness. Guessing this is my whiskey pick

I'm loving this. It's got some heat, but it's so smooth. Live tasting in Vegas!

Liquid gold, Jerry!
Smooth and easy. Nice palette, and a perfectly spicy finish.

My favorite of the past 3. Full of many sweet and burnt flavors.

What a wonderful and unexpected dram on day three! Light-bodied, honey on the nose, an evolution on the pallet, and a welcome bite at the end. I canโt wait for all of the bourbon lovers to downvote this into oblivion. Great addition to the calendar!

This taste great. I hope this was one of my pics. Very easy to drink.

Looks like a scotch. Tastes better than a scotch. If this is a scotch, I'm very impressed.

Extra Citrusy. ๐๐. Decent

This one tastes like it's got something adding sweetness like chocolate flavored Hawaiian Punch. Digging it.

Pretty good.

Guessing either a wheaty bourbon or other. Thereโs a hint of maple and bacon but somehow that isnโt really a good thing. Not bad, but not my fav

This is pretty boring. No flavor, and a little spice at the end.
It's not bad, it's just not good.

Really interesting combo of flavors. Like a cherry pie put in a blender with caramel ice cream.

Nice rich amber color, sweet honey nose, a bit of a bite throughout the finish. This smells like a bourbon but drinks a bit like a rye.
Do I love it? Not really.
Have both my kids been sick since before Thanksgiving and Iโm just glad to have some booze at the end of the day? Absolutely.
While this wouldnโt be my first choice to enjoy neat, I bet it would make an excellent cocktail.

Hanky
Earthy, some baking spice, light nose, short finish. I have zero clue what this is. Has that green apple ๐ flavor that usually means itโs younger.

I get a licorice and medicinal taste. A bit of heat, donโt know what it isโฆ.

This is insanely good. It smells exactly like chocolate covered cherries and amaretto. It takes a second for the heat to drop, but after giving it some air, it shines.
James Hopkins

Strong in the wrong way. Decent.

Quotes
Sweet delicious bourbon done really well. This is one of my favorite bourbons and I was so happy to see it get the recognition it deserves last year. Itโs as good as I remember.
