Evan Williams White Label Bottled in Bond Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed December 30, 2019 (edited August 8, 2020)The nose is very sweet vanilla and cloves. Take several sips before evaluating. I get pumpkin pie spices and candy corn on the palate with a mild pepper finish. Very enjoyable and under rated due to its inexpensive price. I have done blind tastings of this against mid-priced bourbons with people and it always rates well.16.0 USD per Bottle -
Evan Williams Single Barrel
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed December 30, 2019 (edited January 7, 2020)The nose is mild with caramel, figs, and smoke. The palate follows similarly, with more caramel and fruit. The finish is warm with a slight bitterness at the very end. A good light whiskey. -
Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch A119
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed December 11, 2019 (edited March 29, 2021)Ahh, Elijah Craig can do no wrong. Smoky, sweet and fruity BBQ nose. Strong, but not alcohol forward. The palate is at first fruity with lots of vanilla, fnishing spicy and finally a mild doughy pie. This is a particularly high proof even for ECBP but you'd never guess it. It does finish with a nice warm chest. Truly delicious. -
David Nicholson Reserve Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky (bottled in Missouri), USA
Reviewed November 8, 2019 (edited December 13, 2019)Light fruit and brown sugar nose. Very cherry pie forward on the tongue. Light, not long. -
Blood Oath Bourbon Pact No. 5
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 8, 2019 (edited December 26, 2019)Reminiscent of Rebel Yell at higher proof and added sweet fruit from the rum cask. Go with Rebel Yell single barrel and add water at a fraction of the cost. -
Rebel Yell 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 8, 2019 (edited January 9, 2021)Cherry pie nose, singular. Starts with more of the same on the palate, adding molasses, and finishing with black licorice and finally pepper in your throat. The licorice lingers on your tongue.60.0 USD per Bottle -
Sam Houston 12 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon (Release No. 2 2019)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 7, 2019 (edited October 2, 2020)Corn and burnt sugar nose. Very sweet and fruity up front, then woody oak and finally pepper in the end. This is made by Barton's, so essentially a 12 year old 1792 at 98 proof. Good but not remarkable enough to justify a $92 price tag, regardless of the 12 year label. Update, note, at last count this is going for $120. -
Maker's Mark Private Select Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 4, 2019 (edited December 15, 2019)Lukas Liquor, Kansas City, MO 109.9 Proof 4 Seared French Cuvee 2 Makers 46 2 Roasted French Mocha 2 Toasted French Spice Nose is strong, filling the nostrils with smoke and apple fruit with baking spices in the background. Smoky BBQ leads the way on the tongue and lingers. Silky chocolate follows and black pepper finishes. A good amount of heat, not mild at all. -
Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 3, 2019 (edited November 25, 2020)A very different Four Roses. I get no floral notes. The nose is difficult to describe maybe some barbeque sauce, but something else. Much more defined on the palate. I get chocolate followed by pepper fading to peppermint. The chocolate stays until the end which lingers. This takes a few sips to appreciate fully but once you figure it out you want more. Quite good.60.0 USD per Bottle
