Milk chocolate, nougat, butterscotch, spicy rye, sweet date jam aroma. Full mouthfeel. Slow dances around on the palate. Huge butterscotch, slight rye finish. Great barrel drys out the sweetness. Amazing how well its aged. Thanks buddy Louie V. Amazing

Creamiest of the bunch. 2nd smokiest of the row. Leather is the player here. '15 is the winner.

Leather, dark fruits, chocolate aroma. Medium creamy mouthfeel. Has a nice semi sweet bakers chocolate leather finish. Overall decent bit of sweetness unlike all the other years.

Dark fruit, oak, baking spice aroma. Big bourbon. Tad smoky. More body than '18.
