Smoke Wagon Uncut Unfiltered Bourbon

The liquid is a beautiful amber color, and smells great in the glass with a medium intensity aroma. The first thing that hits you is the sweetness of the aroma — specifically, some of the caramel and toasted sugar notes from the barrel. There’s also some raw corn in here, some orange citrus, and just a hint of vanilla.

A lot of those flavors translate very well into the flavor, specifically that orange citrus. It’s gone from being a part player to nearly the star of the show as the first thing I taste, backed up with some brown sugar and vanilla. Which is all just fantastic.
