  • Cabin Still Bourbon

    Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

    Reviewed June 17, 2016 (edited September 26, 2020)
    Paint thinner and corn on the nose. Fairly sweet with an odd mixture of spice notes. Harsh finish. At best would merit half a star. I do not recommend this whiskey.

    Caramel corn and light toasted oak on the nose. Sweet taste with some light brown sugar, caramel, and a touch of darker fruits. Spicey finish with barrell char in a medium to long finish. Good budget bourbon.

    Nose of butterscotch, honey and cream. Touch of water (not too much) opens this up. Can taste corn and some rye. Flavor includes notes of vanilla, cinnamon and toasty oak. Slightly sweet with some candy corn flavor. Medium finish with pepper present. Very nice budge whiskey.

    Average to below average bourbon. Some floral notes on the nose. There is some vanilla, butterscotch and charred oak in the taste. A couple drops of water opens this up. Body is on thinner side. Finish is medium with more observance of alcohol than flavor. Should be priced in the $20 range; not worth more than that.

    Nose of caramel, cream and light smoke. Thinner body; sweeter taste. The flavor is not distinct in any way. Touch of spice towards the finish, which is short to mid. Best mixed with 7 Up. Not top shelf; but a bit above bottom shelf swill.

    Nose of wheat and prairie in bloom. Very young whiskey. Taste starts sweet, quickly moves to spice. Whiskey is a little thin. Finish is terrible; medium with aspects of paint thinner mixed with wheat and spice. This whiskey could use a lot more time in the barrell before bottling. Best not to drink neat; works better as a mixer. Should be bottom shelf price point. It is definitely not worth premium pricing.

    Nose of corn and minimal wood. Sweet taste from corn. Few other notes in this young whiskey. Definitely not complex or balanced. Finish is short. WIth this quality it should be priced in the $15 to $20 range; others are much better at any higher price point. Debated giving it only 1 star.
