Reviews and Tasting Notes
Appearance / Colour
Smoky deep amber orange.
Smell / Nose / Aroma
Huge but soft. Vanilla, honey, molasses, orange, tropical fruits, black banana and spice. Meaty aroma and cedar.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
Massive and intense. Spicy, sweet - almost liqueur like and hot. Blackberry and burnt sugar. Oak, then dryness (tannin, tobacco).
Finish
Hot, long, spicy and intense. Almond, wood, corn, a touch of maple syrup, pepper.
Comment
While it is not necessary to cut the bourbon with water, a splash or two of distilled water is recommended (by Booker Noe) to unlock some of the flavour.

Rye, spicy, orange, oak, sweet, vanilla, black cherry, smoky, syrup.

Joseph,
first sip is hot then mellows after, long lasting taste with good oak finish. scotch glass with some ice cubes sip with friends great stuff.
Richard,
The whiskey is too strong, with a powerful burning sensation as it finishes. There are notes of oak, which are quickly overpowered by the finish.
Justin,
