Sweet and winey, maple, vanilla, red fruits, cinnamon
Thin mouth feel but not surprised for the low proof. Sweet and unoffensive, loaded with molasses, cinnamon, fruity jam, vanilla. I fail to taste the "rarity" of the brandy but I do get a good bit of brandy notes.
Short to medium and no heat whatsoever. Fruity and sweet but balanced with some nice woody maple notes. Never thought Id say this of a young Beam product but I actually enjoy this
Overall, this is a decent product for the price and one I quite enjoy as winter is approaching. Its great for that time you dont need a bruiser dram but want something that wont give you flashbacks to college dorms at a great price. I wont embellish it and say its a very good, or even great whiskey but its quite a bit better than I expected from it and I enjoy sitting down to a dram of this to warm up for the evening or to just sip on while Im doing housework or whatnot. For this reason, Im giving this a 5. Nothing to be ashamed of in the slightest. Id honestly probably take this over Rare Breed (my last review before this)
