General description

Sweet home, Kentucky...

Nose

The nose is Jim Beam but with tonnes of extra honeyed sweetness. The issue is that the honey dominates all else to the degree that the bourbon has to take a back seat and as I like Jim Beam, compared to JD, this disadvantages the whiskey.

Palate

Much as expected on the nose. The honey is perhaps a little too much, and the balance of whiskey and honey just isn't there. Too much of the honey. Something like Jameson Caskmates has tended to get it right in balance or slightly better is Ballantine's Brazil. Just honey flavour really with a hint of the vanilla and caramel with a smidge of spice.

Finish

Medium and with the sugary, honey sweetness dominant. If a sweet liqueur is your thing then this might be for you. I don't hate it but I wouldn't go for it again other than as a potential mixer in a cocktail.

General description

Notes: O.K. for neat, but most likely better for mixing. The Best of all the Honey Bourbons in this list; and first; then. from My tasting the
second best is Wild Turkey American Honey, the third best is Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey, and last is Evan Williams Honey as it is too
much like Southern Comfort, and unless you are Janis Joplin you won’t like it.

Nose

Sweet, Oak, Honey

Palate

Sweet, Oak, Honey, Light Mandarin Orange

Finish

Sweet Honey, Oak, Pepper; aftertaste of sweet Oak followed by citrus.

General description

8 minutes of airtime. Nose is very sharp and complex. It did not draw saliva. More like a walk through a Grove after the rain. Palate quick sweet then clove, anise, pine, Gardena, Jasmine, WOW APPLE, honey. Not even good for a mixer. I will not buy again. Too spicy for my palate.
