Tastes

Light nose of caramel and oak. Pretty uneventful on the taste. Hard to pick out much. Recommended at total wine but not sure why.

It's interesting as heck. The smell is honey and spice but the taste has raisons and strong clove flavors. Taste reminds me of how clove cigarettes smell from a distance. This is one I'll need to try again. It stands out as dramatically unique. Reminds me of what bourbon barreled beers taste like. Which normally never taste like bourbon to me but taste like this.

Light fruit and honey in the nose. Maybe some orange peel. Something tannic almost musty, reminds me of how a wine barrel room smells. Pungent for 1/2 second then salt and some chocolate finishes around scrub brush initially. Light smoke and nice dose of peat appears from nowhere on the finish. That reduces to hints of peat, baking chocolate and heather lingering last

If I really liked IPA I would probably love this. The floral, fruity and hoppy nose matches the finish. I got strong lemon and hops finishing. Mid palate was more traditional Jameson.

Lots of vanilla and caramel. Fruity. Some bread. Extra sweet. Tasting was an old near empty bottle.

Updated after second tasting. Surprisingly easy sipper for the low price point. Some leather, but more leather cleaner and oak on the nose with caramel at a distance. Almost dryer sheet too. Initial taste is sweet, bannana but more fake like runts, you taste the corn but enough rye to add some spice and burn for a second or 3, finishes softer like raisins in banana nut bread with warm honey butter but never loses that spicy burn fully.

Not strong nose but vanilla, caramel and leather. Taste is light burn, some more vanilla, wet cardboard, caramel, tabacco and some citrus peel. Finishes long with some sawdust and straw. It's good but makes me wonder what all the hype is about. If I paid 160+ I'd be upset. Splash of water just thinned everything out. Dumped 6/25/20 barrel 426 warehouse H Rick no 1 at 93 proof.

Some berry and floral nose. Taste has a bit of wood and earthy followed by bits of spice and dark berry.

Uncorking, some mild fruit and honey but getting a lot of moonshine grain. Taste however really makes up for it. Sweet and pastry on the front with some apple. Mild wood and straw in the finish.

Apple and spice on nose. Caramel and spice, some apple on taste. Not bad but super easy to sip, tiny bit of smoke on the finish.
