Member Ratings and Notes

Sku

N: Straight forward, sweet bourbon and mint.
P: Sweet and bright with some citrus notes. Typical wheater profile.
F: Fleeting mint notes.

Good if simplistic.

B/B-

Tim

N: Spirity, dry and spicy. Dry wood. Lightly sour with pine notes.

P: Coating on the palate, creamy, slightly vanilla, with the dry pine notes present. Woody. A strange mix of bitter and sweet.

F: Vanilla, cherry, slightly buttery, dry wood. Moderate length with the pine note persisting.

The sharp spirit and pine notes make this a non-starter for me. Dry wood; generally unpleasant.
