Is Evan Williams Bourbon sweet?

On the tip of the tongue, it's sweet, and then the finish is a bit sour. The most noticeable part of the finish is the smokiness in the throat and nose — it'll definitely warm up your throat. Evan Williams does alright on its own, but it's best in a mixed drink so I recommend keeping a bottle on your shelf.
