"Deep amber color. Spicy charred oak, sweet toffee, and pepper aromas. A rich entry leads to a dryish medium-to full-bodied palate with toffee, mocha, and white pepper flavors with a pronounced copper tang. Finishes with a sweet, charred barrel, brown, and metallic fade. An aggressive and spicy bourbon that will work nicely in a bourbon peach tea cocktail."

"Creamy powdered sugar and talc aromas. Supple and delicate on the palate with a lightly glycerous texture and dusty minerality with hints of sweet anise and citrus. Finishes soft and clean."

"Reminiscent of pear, peach, flowers, fresh herbs. Soft and light on the palate with a potpourri of attractive fragrances. Displays a sense of elegance and grace. Fruity and lively at the finish."

"Clear. Pistachio nougat, sweet cream, and cream of wheat aromas have a wonderful toasted grain edge and follow through on a soft, supple entry to an off-dry medium body with dried cherry, raisin toast and vanilla accents. Finishes in a husky, nutshell, powdered sugar, tarragon, and peppery spice fade with a hint of vinyl. A fun, lively vodka that is sure to inspire flavorful cocktails or all types. Silver Medal"

"The nosing passes find distant scents of honey, baked bread, and corn meal. The palate entry is pleasingly balanced and not the least cloying; at midpalate the flavor profile features integrated tastes of honey, spice and lemon zest. Finishes clean, balanced and very enjoyable. The citrus element nicely counters the honey and the bourbon." 85-89 pts.
