Old Forester 100 Proof Bourbon

Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

A little strong, too much alcohol. Sweetness comes after, but still a little agressive. There's a deep wood there that I enjoy as well. But it needs water. Water makes those two flavors very balanced, although the heat is still there.

Wood flavor as you would expect, but pretty one dimensional. Alcohol burn, fairly thin. Not the worst, not the greatest.

Maple isn't super aggressive on the nose, but it's there. It tastes like Maple syrup. Overpowering. Kinda gross. Maybe better than Tennessee honey but not by much. Ugh.

Fruity and sweet on the nose. Alcohol is a little overpowering but the flavors that come on the tail are great. Wheat, but sweetness there too that's pretty good. Wood taste rounds it out. Wood is more forward the more I drink it. I like it better than 107

Grain flavor of scotch is there, but theres something about it I dont care for. Heather? Peat is there too, but both the grain and the peat taste to me like its trying too hard to be scotch.

Flavors are great, just get hip checked by the alcohol. I catch chocolate on the finish. Tastes like a textbook bourbon, enjoyable.

Minimal burn, allows the flavors to shine. Excellent grain flavor, not much peat, but there's a ton of sweetness, I assume the rum cask. Very enjoyable.

More balanced than the 12 year, but very light, less salty, nothing too aggressive. Burn is pretty minimal, medium richness.

I like the brightness, has the smoke of a scotch but with a lot of salt. Makes it kind of interesting, with enough richness to keep me happy.

Reminds me a lot of wild turkey rye, very light and fruity. Spice is pleasant, but is kinda one dimensional. lighter and simpler than I prefer.
