Tastes

First tasted at the Century Bar in Dayton on recommendation by one of the owners. Great Rye. I order it whenever I see it on a list. Hard to find. Ended up picking up a bottle from Haymarket Bar in Louisville for my home Bar.

Barrel #709 Barreled 2-4-09 Bottled 5-13-17 Nose: caramel, orange peel, toasted (coconut?!?)

Great rare bourbon. Enjoyed at Bourbon raw in Louisville.

Stunning smoky as all get out. Yummy.

I usually dislike old forester. This movie tie-in bourbon was actually good. A forester I would drink... but. Or buy a bottle at that price point.

Ugh. Looks great, smells wonderful. First sip with ice was nice. Neat was okay for the first few sips. But port was too pronounced and did nothing for the whiskey. I could not finish. I was hopeful. Glad I had it in a bar and didn't just buy a bottle at the Jim Beam Urban Stillhouse. Disappointing.

Solid Rye whiskey. One of the good ones.

Not a fan. I have had much better Rye whiskey especially at the price point.

Nice solid bourbon
