I can smell it from a couple of feet away!

The nose is agressive, bourbon style, topical, coconut, almonds, vanilla. As advertised there is mango on the palate. Net and not out of place in this spirit, spicy, hints of oak, coco husk, and walnut skin. This finish is quite long but the heat was quite noticeable,. more than its 40% might suggest. Lacks the smoothness of a good scotch but has every bit the punch. I'm not sure I'm a believer in this particular example from the perspective of price and quality. I think there are better bourbon values..imagine that!]]>

I knew nothing about this whisky when I bought it. I was told that this was released with some fanfare in honor of a master Distiller who had just celebrated his 5th decade at the distillery. that is quite a feat and we can celebrate just the loyalty alone. Now to the hard stuff.

Initially, I was kindalet down. Don't get me wrong, ice enough drink, good loads in proportions of orange, honey, vanilla, bits of caramel. it has a good density of favors and it is very smooth. Definitely fruity but more so the sensation of sweetness. Then after a while, I settled down with this and started to really enjoy it. It has a wonderful balance to this, a certain, lasse-faire attitude, time is a wonderful educator sort of feel to it. As if you know that you would enjoy this much more after working with the stuff for 5 decades, and not just drinking it for 10 years. I did not want to take the marketing hype into the equation, but this is one drink that I think experienced drinkers will enjoy a whole lot more than point markers....]]>

All I can say is Wow. this is a whisky caught in is full prime of life, fully matured yet amazingly complete. The nose is like a fantastic cognac, full of rancio, before you get to the other notes. and there is more when you taste it, super texture, super long amazing stuff. If you can find it nowadays, expect it to be the wrong side of a $1000 bill, but man is it worth the entry price!]]>
