Reviewed May 26, 2023 (edited August 29, 2023)Sinkers Wine & Spirits 118.2: nose is smores, rich mahogony, leather, dark chocolate. One of the best noses I've experienced in a while. On the palate I get a rich mouthfeel, with notes of cinammon, caramel, and spice, with a suprisingly hot palate that includes hints of citrus and oak. Good, but did not live up to the nose (4.25/5) Red Dog KRY 117.98: nose is vanilla, oak, chocolate, and light plum notes. On the palate I get fudge immediately, followed by oak, sweet cereal, and floral notes. Finish is pleasant, more fruit, cognac, and mint. (4/5) Red Dog Rum Cask 118.48: nose is molasses, caramel, and maple. Caramel bomb on the palate, notes of butterscotch and peanut as well. Long smooth finish with hints of cinammon and peanuts. (4.25/5) Red Sog IRT 117.66: nose is a little musty, with notes of maple and cigar box. That continues on the palate, with additional notes of cognac and fig. Finish is short, very dry tannic oak, not my favorite finish of the bunch (3.75/5) Red Dog White Port 110.82: nose is a bit one dimensional, I got straight oak. Palate is more oak, but very rich and viscous. Also get hints of dark fruit. Trnasitioning to the finish, the white port shines through in a pleasant subtle way, along with hot tamale. (4/5) Bourbon Pursuit 121.68: nose is peach, orange and floral notes. On the palate I get caramel, more floral notes, and subtle oak. The finish is disappointing, cinammon and a bit of dill. High hopes for this one and it disappointed compared to the rest, which were all good in their own way. This one was mediocre at best. (3.75/5) Party Source Amburana Finish: cinammon toast crunch, raisin, cherry. Very good! (4.5/5) -
Elijah Craig 18 Year Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed May 19, 2023 (edited September 8, 2023)Love the nose, good palate, hate the finish. Vanilla, fudge, honey, and then goes very south on the finish with an insane amount of oak. Like I can taste the bark (4/5) Pre-fire, 2-2-2018 bottling date: (4.25/5)
