No heavy on the nose, but hot on the finish. Really light color, not full flavored.

sweet, hot finish, smell and taste of carmel

This one tastes like it's got something adding sweetness like chocolate flavored Hawaiian Punch. Digging it.
John Boggs
I struggled differentiating this one. The nose was pleasant and sweet. The sweetness of the nose did not extend to the flavor. Enjoyed it.

First whiff: notes of maple syrup but don't think it's Canadian, thinking it's a bourbon Second whiff: less convinced it's a bourbon and realizing it's going to be another year where my thumb gets sore scrolling the leaderboard to find my name First taste: its light, not complex but I like it, clearly exposing my unsophisticated palate? palette? pallet? Second taste: I think this would be best served neat, over rocks would water down too quickly, has to be a lower proof Let's go with $43 for a fifth?

I get a licorice and medicinal taste. A bit of heat, donโ€™t know what it isโ€ฆ.

Sweet delicious bourbon done really well. This is one of my favorite bourbons and I was so happy to see it get the recognition it deserves last year. Itโ€™s as good as I remember.

Feel the burn... it is strong and I love it. I get notes of cherries, caramel and spice. If you let it sit in your mouth, you can get a feeling for the high proof of this bourbon. Great start to the advent calendar.

Strong candy smell on the nose. Light and easy drinking with some subtle light fruit flavors. The pour and taste made me want to guess other. But... in the advent calendar when you're not sure just guess bourbon.

This is delicious and the reason I love bourbon. Traditional sweet bourbon nose and lots of nutty and maple syrup flavor. A little lower on the proof but means I could drink it all day.

Looks like a flat soda, strong coffee flavor. I would not buy it again, cause it's bad
