Tastes

Slightly dissapointed in this one. Off the nose, first thing i noticed was the oak and creamy vanilla and baking spices. First thing that came to mind was that it smelled a bit like egg nog almost. All of that up front with sour apple underlying the vanilla. The flavor profile was pretty simple. The oak comes through immediately and lingers, sort of off putting like a fresh piece of wood. Caramel/brown sugar and spices mid-finish. Overall its thin with a short finish leaving more to be desired. Ill stick to the OG single barrel.

Oak hits you up front with toffee undertones, leathery mid with a spicy cherry vanilla finish. The cherry lingers more than the vanilla and carries through for a while. Really enjoyable.
