Tastes

Sweet maple syrup on the nose. Very oaky palate, intense. Spice, WT funk, very pleasant at 57%. Finish is long and dry with lovely sweet tobacco. It’s good…. but I like RR10 single barrel better. Didn’t expect that. As a certified WT fanboy I am DELIGHTED to have tried it!

Barrel 2036 Warehouse M Spicy son a gun! Wild Turkey funk in full force. Similar to RR 10 SB but thinner mouthful and much less sweet. Much more okay. More aggressive, which I like in this occasion. Overall good! Price hurts though, bottle was $65. For being a product to fight Blanton’s at least my barrel is interesting and beats it IMO. I’ll have to see how it does in my flight fight against RR10, RR10SB, and Rare Breed.

The all terrain bourbon. The fall back bourbon. The never too good but never bad bourbon. The take home to meet your mom bourbon. The good bourbon.

Vanilla. Like drinking a warm mulled spice capri sun. Light and easy, soft and pleasant mouth feel. Spiced but not sharp

Isn’t this a 51% rye? You can tell. It’s good. Soft bouquet or rye spice notes, some oak and mint. Soft and sweet. Very very easy drinking. Would be a good intro for rye but I don’t think it’s a great representation of the class. Missing more complexity and nuance with the spice/pepper/herbal you can find in others. Outside of that I find it divine. Would like to try 6 reserve single barrel head to head.

Much better then Irish + Bourbon. Solid.

Really intense herbal notes. Black licorice!

Perhaps I was too harsh in the past. Way too spendy tho SHEEEEESH
