Yes!
It has the classic sweet leather I often get on the nose with bourbon. It’s quite peppery to taste and a bit bright but since they use small casks (which is why such a new distiller can already have an aged product to bottle), I get the vanilla and caramel characteristics from the oak on the finish. It’s a bit young & I find the alcohol too bite-y so I prefer to reduced this one with a bit of water. Overall, it’s a nice product and I like it’s pre-prohibition feel with the flask shaped bottles and small, hand applied simple labels.
Sounds like a lovely beverage! Agreed on the packaging too. VERY cool and flask like. Perfect to keep in your back pocket. 🙂
