Tastes

Nose: bread (must be the rye) Palate: sweet vanilla then cinnamon Finish: long and warm, stays in the chest I don’t love it, but I don’t hate it. If it’s all I had on the shelf, I’d drink it.

Nose: bread, some sweetness Palate: sweet start, then spice, leather Finish: long Kentucky hug I’m not sure I like Rye Whiskey. I think I’m more of a bourbon girl.

Nose: immediate sweetness, caramel popcorn, butter, ethanol Palate: strong caramel, then spice with a tongue tingle, pepper. Finish: short on flavor but the tingle remains for a bit Overall: really nice flavor

Nose: ethanol then vanilla but light, sweet maybe milk chocolate. After a palette cleanse and after letting it sit for about 5 mins, now I get a fruit forward nose, Cherry then the ethanol hits again Palate: super sweet vanilla start then an immediate burn in the back of the throat Second taste and the vanilla stays longer. 2nd sip after palette cleanse is very fruity, cherry and vanilla sweetness, less burn but the tingle is still there Finish: hot and bitter, tingly on the lips. After 3rd sip the hot becomes a cinnamon flavor. Overall, it’s good. I think it should have some air before it can be fully enjoyed. A couple drops of water could probably help bring more of the fruit notes to the front and tame the hot a bit in the finish.

Nose: green apples, apple pie but without the cinnamon - after the first sip there is a light creme brûlée Palate: hot start, fruity, apple 3rd taste was caramel and bready Finish: hot and long - tongue tingles that stick with you. The sweet flavors disappear very quickly

Nose: sweet caramel candy block Palate: buttery in the front, apple Finish: medium, sour candy? One cube: still caramel, spice Overall really good!

Nose: ethanol at first, oak, black pepper, vanilla Palate: starts with a little sweetness but turn bitter quick Finish: bitter in the back of the throat, long finish but not good. One ice cube: a little sweeter in the front but the bitter finish over powers every thing. I don’t think I’ll return to this one

Banana pudding!!! This is a very drinkable and affordable bourbon. Especially if you like bananas

Getting those banana flavors again on both the nose at palate. I love this. If you like banana flavor, Old Forester is your go to

The first time I tried this, I got nothing but heat. Now that is has sat for a couple weeks, I can really tastes bananas and caramel. Like a fresh cut banana with some caramel drizzled over the top of it! It’s dessert in a glass! On the nose, same thing. Bananas! This might be a new favorite.
