Tastes

Pretty good. A good alternative to reach for when taking a break from ECBP. Once again, a really solid whiskey to drink and well worrh it when available near MSRP.

Delicious

Noah’s mill is a fairly unique profile in my opinion. Initially, the nose and the pallet is sweet, but quickly shows unique, musty, dusty qualities along with spice and cinnamon. Noah’s Mill set itself apart when compared to other quality bourbons with his overall complex flavor profile that has few comparisons.

Really solid and smooth/good for a 90 proof pour.

Overall a very solid ECBP batch this time around with the B524.

I agreed that A124 is not the best ECBP release. But I’m about halfway through the bottle, and I am also continuing to sip A123 and B523. Although they are different, the A124 is not a catastrophe for the brand as some would suggest, because I find each of them pleasurable in their own way and still generally embodied the ECBP profile.

I currently have Vantage, Seagrass, Dovetail, and Bourbon Batch 35. Vantage is the lowest proof but is the least round and has spicier and sharper edges. I prefer this one the least of the four aforementioned (yes, Dovetail is more enjoyable and easier drinking despite the higher proof). Vantage is not “bad” but because of the others, I have relegated Vantage for use in spirit-forward cocktails. Really enjoy neat slow sipping the others.

Popped it open; first impression - I do like this. Agree that it is smooth, drinks well below the 125+ proof which is a major plus. Combines some sweet and spicy , although early on I predominantly taste the affects of the “Finishing” done by Barrell in my own experience of the finish. I am glad the finish does not impose too much on the profile. I Didn’t know what to expect with my first finished Whiskey. I look forward to see how this changes over time (next week, next month, etc.). But I expect to be excited to reach for it again.
