92 Points, Gold, Exceptional - Tastings.com
"Golden amber color. Aromas of hot cinnamon candies, milk chocolate, corn pops, maple syrup, and toast with a supple, soft, dryish light body and a smooth, agreeable gingerbread with raisins and condensed milk finish. A mild, creamy craft Bourbon that warms the soul in cooler months."

90 Points - Whisky Advocate
"While the nose showcases primarily grain aromas, including cracked corn and peanut shell, it also has notes of white pepper, dark cherries, brown sugar, and Hershey’s chocolate syrup—a harbinger of things to come. The palate is a chocolate lover’s dream, rich and tantalizing without heaviness. There’s also mint, cinnamon, cashew butter, and well-integrated oak; time and water bring out sweet orange. It finishes with milk chocolate, toasted nuts, and lingering cinnamon."

"A whiskey that’s accessible, approachable, and affordable. An easy buy recommendation for anyone looking for this particular style." - Breaking Bourbon
