Four Roses Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 14, 2019 (edited April 6, 2020)Chocolate covered cherry, baking spices, grass, and a hint of bubblegum in the nose. Not much ethanol which is nice for 100 proof. Palate features red delicious apple, caramel, and vanilla, followed by some floral notes and white pepper. A little lacking in the richness department, but nicely balanced. Medium length finish of Red Hots and chocolate mint. Silky mouthfeel. Overall a really solid value pick at Total Wine’s price of $37. Being a single barrel product you’re going to have some variation, and I’ve had some bottles that were a little too floral for my tastes. But consistently solid enough for rebuy status.37.0 USD per Bottle -
Buffalo Trace Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 14, 2019 (edited September 17, 2019)Sweet, super mellow and well balanced. Vanilla and caramel in the nose. Toffee and butterscotch on the palate. Short, dry finish with just a hint of oak bite and a little bit of metallic copper penny, which while certainly a flaw stops short of ruining the experience. Mouthfeel is super silky, and elevates this up a notch. Almost “refreshing” in it’s feel on the palate. Overall not a terribly complex whiskey but solid and dependable and my rating reflects that. If I were rating it solely on a ‘value’ perspective, it would be higher.24.0 USD per Bottle
