I had some more of this this morning.
Initial neat evaluation - very acidic and medicinal nose. Not really pleasant. Strong burning early in the first sip, but surprisingly finishes very smooth. Not particularly sweet. It's not really my favorite at all, but I'm not as much a bourbon man as a single malt guy.
It does make a pretty decent whiskey sour, though. Again, not particularly sweet but the acidity is smoothed out a lot. It's not the same as the spiciness you get in a good rye, it really does seem acidic, almost medicinal.
Personally, I'll stick to the Elijah Craig, Four Roses and Weller's 107 from now on with bourbon. I'll pass on the Turkey.
Good choices but don't leave out Woodford Reserve (nectar of the gods). Tonight it's plain old makers and coke with a My Father #5. Freaking phenomenal cigar.
