Tastes

Cinnamon on the nose, initial mouth feel is oily and satisfying. Semi-Bright heat but not sure if it’s alcohol or the Big Red flavor that lands dead center on your tongue. The finish is enjoyable but the entire flavor profile is pretty one dimensional.

Super tight nose, heavy alcohol boarder line Windex. After letting the pour sit a little while starting to get hints of cream soda / vanilla. The first sip yields a thin viscosity with most of the flavor notes hitting the front and back of the mouth. Cream soda with notes of sour apple and black cherry with sweet notes on the satisfying finish. However after half a dram the alcohol heat still comes in bright every time and while this is 114 proof there are other single barrels that are stronger and less continuously bright.

The nose reminds me of a malted barley scotch, with a more medicinal than peat smell. The mouth feel is light and airy with a nice herbal scotch flavor, again no smoke no peat. Earthy! The finish is long with a combination of birthday cake and baking spice.

Very tight nose, no hint of alcohol maybe a light touch of hay or fresh cut grass. First sip, a very distinct hint of salt with butterscotch and clover. The finish hits smack dab in the center of your tongue with a salty / savory morsel effect like when you suck the salt off a warm pretzel. This pour surprised me on the pallet with the spectacular spectacle of different flavors at play.

Heavy baking spices nutmeg and bbq on the nose. Initial sip coffee, Anise, and vanilla turning into a long lasting finish of tobacco. Tasty but does finish a little young

The nose is sweet raisins / currents, the initial sip is a wonderful mouth feel sweetness forward the sherry cask shines with flavors of caramel, cherry with a finish that is short but sweet

The nose is tight with small wisps of baking spice, leather, light straw In the mouth you get Bottled in Bond 100 proof alchemy right out of the gate. Fade-in to a flavorful mid palette of orange, cinnamon fading to a wonderful long lasting finish of Carmel, rose water, leather and baking spice. Really for the price you can’t go wrong

Smells like an unpeated a scotch on the nose. medicinals and rubber balloon. Initial sip is “fresh” with a rye pepper mid palette finishing with baking spice and caramel. The finish is long lasting and reminds me of juicy fruit gum with out sugar.

Fairly tight nose, almost like windex but the pleasure side of windex. Deep leather tobacco, dried fruits awesome finish

Spicy cinnamon / alcohol (a little young) turning to a softer caramel to dried fruit pushing a nice long finish. Really impressed with this, I’d like to see a longer aged impression.
