Heaven Hill 17 Year Heritage Collection Barrel Proof Bourbon (Spring 2022)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 1, 2025Lots of oak. Notes of toffee and butterscotch, dark chocolate, chocolate covered cherries. Long finish -
Re taste: Nose is minty, fruity (candy-runts), some vanilla and toasted oak. Taste follows suit with the nose. Certainly some younger notes, but not off putting, more green apple, hay, corn flakes. Quicker finish, but has a nice hug in the back of your throat. Overall, very nice. Love the story. Either the bourbon has opened up or my palate has changed since the last tasting when it first came out.

Woodford Reserve Master's Collection Batch Proof 118.4
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 12, 2024Nose: sweet, maybe some honey or fruit pastry. Taste - more sweet and peppery than fruity. Lots of proof and oak. Tannic and oak finish. Pretty long linger. -
Found at the distillery after picking a single barrel barrel proof. Nose: old timey cherry and vanilla coke. Pepper. Sweet - iced oatmeal cookies. Taste: more of the cherry/strawberry shines. A good bit of spice. Strawberry unfrosted poptarts. Finish: nice, medium, sharp. Classic fruity old forester.

Silver Grove Barrel Proof Straight Bourbon (2023 Release)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 31, 2024 (edited March 7, 2025)Great nose. Spicy, woody. Taste is complex. Grainy, pitty (fruit - apricots, maybe a dark plum). Im getting spice from something in a longer finish. Its a complicated taste that i am enjoying figuring out. -
Nose: fruity, strawberry watermelon ice, runts candy, rosemary. Taste: sticks with the fruit forward, spice cones in late and lingers. No oak, and very light or thin. Longer finish, very solid overall. Doesnt hold up with ice, maybe a deop or two of water. Nothing wrong with it, missing something (maybe oak or sweetness thats typical with bourbon). Would drink neat and would buy another every time to have a back up bottle.
