Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 6, 2022 (edited November 8, 2022)Nose: banana, banana runts, extremely sweet on the nose Palate: really sweet, banana pudding, banana nut bread although not very grainy Finish: below the proof but long and steady warmth in back of the throat Overall: love the balance and the proof point, like a dessert pour but in a good way (ie not too sweet) -
Bulleit Bourbon Barrel Strength
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 6, 2022 (edited November 7, 2022)Nose: bran muffin, vanilla, marshmallow Palate: spicy, oak, full and balanced Finish: medium and warm Overall: like the bulleit rye more than the bourbon, but the BS is much better in this case. -
Wild Turkey Rare Breed Barrel Proof Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 6, 2022 (edited November 11, 2022)Nose: like there’s some age, can smell the proof (burns the nose!)

Dark whiskey with bold and balance Michter’s taste profile that I enjoy.
