The Kick-Back Sipper
Expect lovely, warm smells of, oaky bourbon barrels, sweet caramel and roasted malts, a bit of earthy spice and scintilla of dark fruit. It’s a kick-back sipper made to excite the palate.

2024 bottle from Livonia Liquor. Been a while since I've had this one. Pours a clear dark amber to brown with a finger of beige foam that dissipates. Bourbon feels a bit lighter than previous years, but nice caramel, toasted malt and dark fruit notes. Balanced with a smooth finish...not as much vanilla as older vintages.
