On PnP this shows it's new oak too much -- vanilla smoothie aromatics and tons of vanilla coconut on the palate. The oak tones integrate with time and air into a more modern styled BDX. Certainly youthful and fresh, and otherwise 'typical'. Solid but would have been better without the heavy handed oak.

Punches above its weight but the oak is still too present. Leave to 2009 at least.

KHC: Very smooth, clean and light with little vibrancy. Nothing stands out, though hopefully it will with age.
