Tasting Notes:

Batch 361, Bottle 8940
The nose is fairly soft with creamy vanilla, candied orange, and citrus peel notes.
Light bodied with some nice fruit character and a nice note of vanilla. The alcohol is a little on the hot side.
The finish is dominated by a vanilla character.
This is decent bourbon but it is light and a bit hot.
