Tastes

Barrel 3887 on 9.28.07 Warm charry nose with a fair amount of spice, ripe fruit and rye with hints of chocolate. Soft palate, lots of heat. Residual caramel blended with spice and vanilla. LOTS going on here... LONG finish dominated by barrel char and spice, balanced with lingering sweetness. I miss being able to get this.

Nose is Earthy sweetness, maple, vanilla and ripe fruit. Same hay mow aroma that seems to come through in all the WP offerings. Thick, viscous body carries an incredibly complex blend of flavors. More barrel comes through in this, but it's unbelievable how well balanced and easy to drink it is for its proof Dark, toasted grains, sweetness that lingers and mixes with a bit of barrel char. Long, meandering finish leaves some stickiness on the palate with cobwebs and burnt sugar.

Nose is dominated by ripe fruits and barrel char. Rich cigars and wood. Black pepper notes as well. Warm and sweet front, some cloying... Smoky.

Bottle no. 145, barrel 2, rick no. 19. bottled on 8.26.19 Nose: dark caramel, cooked sweet corn, barn hay, oak. Sweet front, soft luscious palate warm, complex finish with barrel notes, charcoal, cherrywood, burnt sugar. Amazing balance and everything I'd look for in a fall bourbon.

Lots of Barrell in this one. Heavy char on nose and finish. Slightly sweet front, some smoke. Excellent value, but a bit rough around the edges for a neat drink

A little hot in the nose. Spices, fruit and dry rolled grains... cinnamon, butterscotch, candied apples. Somewhat sweet front grain finish, this is a solid value

Smooth, easy drink. Nothing spectacular, but solid nonetheless. Nose is hay, musty barn, some lighter fruits and spices. Front is sweet and smooth, followed by some cereal grain on the palate and a warm finish. Light caramel and toast with hints of sugar cookies and toasted pecan.
