Tastes

Good batch here. Preferential flavor, short finish. drinks much lower to me. creamy and rich. Caramel and molasses. This is a good bourbon. 4.25-4.5

Nose: hefty nose punch Body: spice forward, sweet cherry overcome by a pepper spice. Overall: interesting dichotemy here. plays pretty well together. its pretty hot and is a heavy sipper. Good job

had a taste in charleston! full proof clears. but this is the real deal- as expected. spicy, good sippin, cherry

this bottle was given to me by my bosses husband for a work accomplishment. i have always been interested in trying a yellowstone product. This toasted barrel is a classic rendition on a toasted finished bourbon. it is a good and easy sipper at 100. preferential to start with and means even more that it was gifted to me. im excited to drink and share this

Comparing to Penelope Rip Nose: graham cracker, honey, can smell the proof jump, cream cheese, peach. has an overall less desserty nose than an opened up rio. Body: nothing like rio. this has more traditional notes. i get some dark fruit as well as the creamy desserty notes. its a good balance between a fully finished dessert product and a traditional bourbon. its a great bottle. but it not what I had expected from my rio experience with similar finishing. Sorry to compare this to rio- its nothing like it. its good on its own accord- but someone else was going to come here looking for the same review.

dry empty on the front light flavor easy sipping, slightly bitter

i dont love scotch

Spicy from start to finish. Not easy to get complexity from it because my palet just cant handle this right now. It is dry and burns but I like something sweeter- like a whistlepig

Nose: Traditional and Sweet. Creme Brulee Body: Full bodied, complex from beginning to end. Slow onset of the bite. Dessert in the Body and Finish. Finish: Graham cracker Proofed around 105 (He corrected me to 122 which i was suprised) It is hard to believe this bottle isnt finished in any way yet it was confirmed. It’s truly complete. Reminds me of my experience with ECBP C923. More dark fruit notes and dessert here, but the process follows.

This is a good rye. Unfortunately I am having it following the Moonrise’s Master Distiller (Doug’s) “Best He Ever Made” Decanter Pour. I would compare this in like with Resergence Rye. It is a 4 and on level with that.
