Member Ratings and Notes
Sku
 
The nose is very fruity and sweet. The whiskey is light on the tongue. It's syrupy with candy corn, caramel and other candy notes as well as some sherry. I'm guessing it's mostly corn because I didn't detect anything in the way of rye flavor. The lightness is such that it almost evaporates on the palate leaving very little in the way of finish except for the last sweet taste and a quick but pleasant woodiness on the way down.
Ries
 

n: toffee, soft with melted butter and a light sprinkle of yellow curry and dry basil. Very alcoholic and some sweet dill pickle juice. Angel food cake sweetness of powdered sugar.

 

t: scalded low-calorie butterscotch pudding with light dill in the middle. Artificial popcorn butter. Very sweet finish with toasted marshmallows and vanilla coffee creamer.  [C-.]
