It's a single barrel, so not a blend of multiple regions or distilleries. it's a ?kentucky straight whiskey,? so it comes from that key bourbon state yet is not a bourbon or a rye. the mash bill must not contain the required 51% dominant grain minimum.

The palate starts off peppery, which makes it a little hard to sift through the flavors. but as the dram goes on, notes of pink bubblegum, cooked rhubarb and cherry cough syrup begin to reveal themselves.
There also is a milled corn scent that tells us that despite the age in the barrel, that grains can come through. the vanilla is light and airy, but also easy to find unlike in some bourbons where the heavier notes push it way into the background.
The finish has a strange mint and basil herbal note that sticks around for a while. the odd thing is that i?m not detecting too much sweetness on the finish, which is what a bourbon enthusiast would be expecting right now.
