Finish: Long. Cough mixture, damson jam, apricot jam, milk chocolate, black pepper. 

Comments: 

Quite a sweet, almost quaffable bourbon. Lots of jammy notes, and a cough mixture feel. Hits the spot, whisky doesn’t have to be complicated, just needs to convey the right taste and smell impressions well.
