Tastes

I was pleasantly surprised from my first pour. Considering that this bottle (750ml) was 12 dollars and change, I was a little skeptical, however the tantalizing scent filling my nostrils had me intrigued, as to what this 100 proof could do. On the palate she wasn't bad either, I actually enjoyed sipping on this... The nose was filled with vanilla custard, brown sugar, and an overall good bourbon smell. The palate was a bit spicy but sweet, maybe black pepper, notes of vanilla, and caramel. Each sip was smooth considering the proof, however there was a considerable amount of heat. She was full flavored, and for the price, this is darn good choice if you can't get your hands on your creme de la creme.

if you like drinking wood chips, then this is for you!... this bottle was gifted to me, needless to say I don't like it neat, on the rocks, or with a chaser. However I used it as an ingredient in making a homemade BBQ sauce for some ribs and chicken.

on the first sip I can taste the sweetness of the drink, notes of vanilla, warm bread, and somewhere in there are floral notes. I purchased this while it was on sale, saw that it was labeled as being a small batch, and so I took a chance... not my favorite, and probably not on my shelf again. Not bad, just didn't do it for me. ** 2 years ago this was my the first wheated bourbon I'd ever had. I will revist this again, as I've tasted some good wheated bourbon. **

I've been seeing this bourbon, more and more on my social media pages, and also on the shelves in the store. I decided to buy this single barrel, and my thoughts are this..... it's good, not great, and for the money I could've got Henry McKenna and kept it moving. Notes of a warm oatmeal cookie,you can taste the vanilla, brown sugar, even a little fruit on the palate. it was a good sip, and will have a spot on the bar until it's gone.

this is a good bourbon to mix with coca-cola... this is a smoky, oak filled sip, that is spicy, so naturally the flavor is intensified with the soda.

great tasting bourbon that's is in the 30-40 dollar price range. I prefer this one neat or on the rocks. This is a must have on my bar, hard to find on the shelf in my city, so whenever I see it, I buy it.

For me this is a great bourbon within the 30-40 dollar range. the aroma is sweet, but not overly sweet. the bourbon taste of vanilla, brown sugar, and toffee when on the palate. It instantly became a favorite of mine, and a staple in my home bourbon bar.
