IWSC judges · Silver · 2024
A captivating bouquet of ripe peach, citrus and delicate vanilla. On the palate, vibrant red berry notes intertwine with warm cinnamon and a hint of black pepper. Short finish.

Aromatic and wonderfully rich, here we have exceptional balance with plenty sweet, nutty aromas. Mouthcoating and creamy, vibrant layers of caramel, vanilla and toasted corn come through on the palate.
Gold2022iwsc.net ↗
Crunchy apples and summer red berry aromas that builds in the mouth with honeyed apricots and fine oak characters. This is extremely fruit-driven with additional pepper spice which adds complexity to the wonderfully long finish.

Distiller · Stephanie Moreno
The bourbon is tangy with a nice savory/sweet balance going on along with a touch of leather. … Pretty good value considering the price point ~ $35 which makes it a good daily dram.

Whisky Advocate · David Fleming · 2022
Aromas of vanilla, Tootsie Roll, caramel, and cinnamon meet more fruity, acidic scents of lime, lemon, and pineapple on the nose, with a sweeter note of fresh melon. … Well-executed flavors, though a bit short at the end.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
