Tastes

Average color in the glass. Smooth smell to it, not what I expect from this high of barrel proof. Smells like an old leather wallet(doesn’t smell like ass) like an old leather wallet your grandfather (pun intended) handed down to you. Pretty smooth on the tongue, but then on the swallow it comes across as an aggressive firework of the barrel proof explosion burn, that you feel in your entire mouth. The only flavor I pick out is caramel popcorn. This remind me of some sort of fall festival/Christmas party hot spice drink, Give you the warmth mouth, throat, and chest feel as it goes down.

Really good. Pretty dark in the glass. Smells rich, and like fresh bread from a bakery and vanilla extract. Very smooth on the tongue. A good sweetness to it, taste like the caramel form the inside of a rolo topped with the same vanilla icing. Slight spice on the tongue. This bourbon makes me feel sophisticated.

Very light color. A buttery Carmel and vanilla candy taste. Nice on the nose, not very aromatic though. Zero burn at all to the nose or taste, very thin mouth feel. Very little lingering taste, gone very quickly from the mouth. All in all, a very easy drinker, probably good for someone new to bourbon.

Super different to anything I’ve tried to this point. Very molasses and licorice. Very smooth.

Smells like vanilla and that alcohol nose burn. Very smooth on the tongue, with little to no burn that you smell. Very sweet taste to it. Reminds me of a sweet yellow corn, vanilla, and apple. Has a very quick, buttery smooth finish to it.

One of my favorite at the time of writing this 9-7-19. Easy drinker, probably alcohol burn/black pepper spice to it. This one is pretty sweet, and I like it. A lot of honey sweetness to it with a woody finish

Pretty average on the nose, spices and pepper on the nose with a finish of fresh leather. Smooth on to the tongue with an aggressive hit of spice and pepper. Oak finish with and oily mouth feel.
