Turning Point Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Bourbon — North Carolina, USA
Reviewed April 12, 2020 (edited June 10, 2020)Nose - the rye notes from the mash really jump out, grass, spice, lemon peel, with vegetal notes and bit of vanilla Taste - spice forward, aromatic herbs, fresh grass, light honey and vanilla Finish - a long spicy finish, pleasant and not overly hot -
Nose - vanilla, honey, butterscotch candy, some coconut, light floral notes and deep barrel oak Taste - buttery coconut and caramel, some oak spice, a bit of orange zest as well Finish - surprisingly oily and lingering consider the lightness of the flavors, some sweet and sour notes that fade into a longer lasting spice burn
-
Nose - smoke and dark fruit, then some salt and pepper notes, a bit of orange peel as well Taste - iodine and smoke at first, then some pepper and citrus, a hint of dark fruit or chocolate in the background Finish - a brief sour tannin note, then mild sweetness, leaving behind a savory pepper flavor that lingers for awhile, a medium amount of heat

A bright, sweet, and approachable bourbon. A perfect everyday sipper and really tasty, especially for the price. Nose - fresh apple and caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, some oak spice and a faint herbal note. Taste - rich caramel and bold oak spice, some vanilla and fresh fruit as well. Finish - a lovely lingering spice and brown sugar, a medium amount of heat.

Nose - caramel and mint jump out at you, with some sour cherry, barrel spice and baking spices Taste - vanilla, caramel, and oak spice, some red apple, and vague herbal notes that could be grass or mint Finish - starts out sweet then transitions to spice on the middle of your tongue, it lingers for quite awhile, a good amount of heat but it’s comforting

A very approachable and easy drinking bourbon. I would always accept a glass of Woodford. Nose - caramel, brown sugar, slightly sour notes and barrel spice Taste - marshmallow is the first thing I think off, followed by walnuts with caramel, almost like pralines; some vanilla sweetness and a bit of barrel spice Finish - pretty thin and fades quickly, caramel sweetness that turns into some light spice, very mild heat
