Tastes

Classic bourbon flavors. Very smooth for a NAS bottle. Pretty good under $40. Dont know if the $50 tag in most states is rated.

Hoffman's-SWMBH 2024 Private Selection / Barrel # / 134.5 pf N- banana, sweet caramel p- initial sweet caramel and butterscotch, rye spice on the back end F- puts a hurting on the tongue for a good 10 sec. Hot.

Malty

Cinnamon. A bit of heat. Definitely the nutty Booker's flavor on the back end.

Niles SWMBH Bourbon Share 3/9/24 The winner of the night unanimously. Notes? Don't remember them......

Niles Bourbon Share 3/9/24 Thanks to Adam. Good rye. Not worth paying up for IMO. EHT is a great value in any expression I'm sure when you find it at retail.

Small sample at the Niles Bourbon Share 3/9/24 Thanks to Adam. Don't remember all the notes but it was really good. Smooth. Wanted to hate it for all the hype, but that's hard to do.

Martin's Supermarket pick 117.3 pf N- low ethanol, very sweet caramel and vanilla very forward. Almost smells like maple at first. Maybe some baking spices and pie crust on the tail end. P- initial taste is cereal grains on the front palate. Chewing brings out cherry and berries midpalate. F- Medium finish. Spicy on the front taste buds. Somewhat dry but not tannic like some cabernet finished I've had. One of my sleeper favorites this year. Picked it up because of the incredible sale price. You probably won't find one for this price, but it's worth more IMO.
