Nose: sweet walnuts, brine and cherry Palate: butterscotch spices, cola, hints of citrus Finish: balanced and smooth finish Reminds me of McKenna 10, and since this is now discontinued I can imagine they will be using more of the spirit to go into McKenna. But honestly this is better than the McKenna I’ve tasted. It’s better than the current NAS Elijah Craig. So maybe those two will improve with the stock that was originally intended for the 6-year bottled in bond. Who knows.30.0 USD per BottleLiquor World

108.8 proof 54.4 % 151021102 Nose: sour cream notes....a little musty. Not much else and not approachable. Palate: much better than the nose, that’s for sure. Sweet grass, oak, spices. A little briny. Finish: pretty fast considering this is barrel strength Will have to come back to this. Something funky going on here.109.0 USD per BottleFlying Dutchman Liquors

Four Roses Private Selection Single Barrel Barrel Strength Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 27, 2019 (edited May 20, 2019)2018 Age: 9 years ABV: 63% Recipe: OESV Store pick (Evergreen, Louisville) Nose: sweet corn and vanilla, hints of syrup Palate: spicy toffee, maple sugars; creamy Finish: medium but not as long as you’d expect with 120+ proof bourbon. Smooth as could be for such a rich pour My favorite FR recipe because of the creamy palate and lower spice.74.99 USD per BottleEvergreen Liquors -
Rebel Yell Kentucky Straight Bourbon (Discontinued)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 26, 2019 (edited April 12, 2019)This bottom shelf bourbon is oft-ignored. But as a cheap wheated bourbon it’s easy to drink. Just don’t expect much complexity. Nose: oak, sweet fruit, corn, caramel Palate: hints of butterscotch and baking spices, light creamy mouthfeel Finish: some spices and sweet citrus and that’s about it. Quick. Wheat bourbon lovers should be OK with this but it’s rough. Noses a bit like Makers Mark, slight cherry fruit. Slightly more medicinal than Makers but not far off.14.0 USD per Bottle -
Wilderness Trail Bottled in Bond Single Barrel Bourbon (Wheated Bourbon)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 26, 2019Nose: sweet wheat right up front. Like sugary wheated cereal; slight cherry or other fruits present Palate: very tasty light citrus, sweet oak and molasses Finish: medium yet light. A very balanced bourbon for four years and a new distillery. Quite a different experience than the standard wheaters such as Weller, Old Fitz and Makers. The sweet wheat notes mix well with citrus and a little spice. Mouthfeel isn’t as oily as, say a Weller Antique. Consistent every pour even many weeks apart. Really interested in how this bourbon ages in future releases.55.0 USD per BottleOld Town Liquors
