Tastes

Wow, this was fantastic! There’s no part of this taste that disappointed. The nose is great with hints of vanilla, caramel and spice. Vanilla up front with some fruit and then spice kicks in the finish is long with just the right amount of heat. More please!

Second taste. More tobacco. All I get is earth and tobacco, followed by minimal burn at the end. Definitely not like some of the Barrell batches I have. This is a 14yr pick. Not really a fan of this single barrel.

Better than I remembered. I get butter pecan on the nose. Not as sweet on the palate. The vanilla and caramel gets overpowered by oak and alcohol. A bit bitter on the finish. I think I prefer the 1920, but this is a good bourbon.

This is an after dinner and after another bourbon night cap. Pure dark chocolate finish, bitter then the heat. Hard to score vs other bourbons given so unique.

Didn’t like this one much when I first got it, but decided to pull it out of the back of the cabinet. A little better than I remembered. Definitely wasn’t getting the strong vitamin flavor I remember (but was still slightly present). You either need to drink this neat or quickly on ice. Water brings out the vitamins.
