Not to go farther off-topic, but this cocktail blogger thinks you described it very well. It's not like Everclear -- it's much lower proof (but still higher-proof than the more-commonly-found 80-proof whiskeys.) Still flavorful with the corn sweetness, but without all of the caramel-vanilla-pepper notes that you get from oak aging.
