Color: Medium to deeper amberNose: Deep Oak, plums, and buttery. The nose contains much the signature oak DNA of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection and other Buffalo Trace Bourbons.Taste: Enters sweet and buttery, goes to a mild zesty citrus character and the swallow is a prevalence of smokiness reminiscent of a Scotch. The acidic nature plays against the smoke in a strange fashion at first, but after more sips becomes an interesting journey.This kind of smoke is rather unexpected flavor coming out of a Bourbon and delivers the the depth of the barrel in a fashion that we dont taste often.Finish: Long finish of serious oak stays firm on the tongue along with citrus, bitter, and tobacco.
