Tastes

Tried at the distillery. Really killer stuff, cask strength spicy rye really pares well with the sweet syrup. It’s adds complexity and sweetness without being sticky sweet. I wish this was more available!

Good flavor. Kinda thin on the palate. Worth it if you can get it for msrp.

Lives up to the hype

Incredible stuff. Sweet and very oaky. If you like oaky bourbons, you’ll love this.

My favorite American single malt. The used oak and Texas heat made it perfect!

The only way I want to ever drink black label

Golden amber in color. Intense spicy oak on the nose. Manageable at cask strength but water really opens up the nose. More toffee and caramel and sweet fruit. Tons of flavor on the palate, all things expected from a cask strength Heaven Hill product. Very Elijah Craig-ish in nature. The finish is long lasting with some white pepper and more bitter oak, neither of which are a bad thing! Highly recommended
