Tastes

Great for a newer whiskey. They use smaller cask sizes which give it more flavor in a shorter amount of time (obviously it shortcuts and isn't the same as normal sized barrel aging). This batch is vanilla forward, some oak and brown spice. Quite smooth. Needs more time, but very sippable.

Fruity sweet nose, some orange, apple, vanilla. Taste is creamy, bit of salt, some oak and sherry. End is brown spice that turns sweet, medium length. So smooth and well rounded.

It wants to be complex, but I feel like some of the flavors just aren't coming through. I get a spicy malty smell, then a sweet creamy flavor, with some salt and citrus, vanilla. Then it just ends. Very very smooth.

Nose is sweet, malty and barley. Some apple. Taste is sweet, vanilla and oak, and fruity, apple and banana. Sherry in the background. Some spice. Smooth, long sweet finish.

Color is rich reddish brown. Smell was malt and vanilla. Taste was nutty, sweet caramel, malt, wheat. Bit of rye spice. Smooth finish, medium length.

This is amazing. Nose is sweet, caramel and vanilla with a splash of spice. Coats your mouth with a luxurious creamy rye feel, taste of toffee and caramel and vanilla at the front, followed by bitter sweet tobacco, some brown spices, bit of citrus. Incredibly long, smooth finish that floats back to the sweet notes. Dram, that's good whiskey. Take a trip to Peerless Distilling in Louisville, it's the only place you can get their single barrel masterpieces. Tastings are only $8 for 4 wonderful bottles (and maybe a bonus pour if you're lucky)

Very, very smooth. The rye spice balances out the sweetness from the corn, and the port wine cask finish adds that dry tannins flavor and mouth feel. Nice medium length finish where some of the rye spices linger. Once again, biggest thing on this one was how smooth it was.
