Tastes

Golden Honey in Color, the nose I'm picking up light oak and overripe peach, almost offputting initially but it mellowed as I drank. Taste I get some some oak and vanilla, and more peach. Initially felt Hot, but got easier and generally fairly smooth. Overall I dont think I'd get it again, but it's not bad for 30 bucks. Peach isn't something I get often with bourbon, maybe it would go well in some cocktails with fruity elements.

I had heard that Ancient Age was some of the original whiskey created by the legendary Elmer T Lee whilst reading about his centenary. His legacy does not live on in this whiskey. It's not that it's a terrible pour, but it certainly falls flat for me after hearing its history. Perhaps if you find bottles from years past it is better. The nose is light and smells faintly of butterscotch and toasted nuts. The taste is thin, with some light caramel and sweet corn and fades quickly to a slight ethanol burn and little else.

Nose is simple with vanilla and smooth spices. Tasting is predominantly of walnut with a hint of vanilla. For the cost it's fairly deliscious.

This is certainly not your standard Rye. Sweeter and with a definite note of dill and anise.

This is not my favorite. The dominant flavors I get are oil and wood. There is something almost meaty about this bourbon.

Smooth. So easy to drink with little burn. Seems decent for the price.

Spicy. Slightly sweet.

Smooth. Oak and vanilla.

Smooth, tobacco leaf sometimes. Wheat.
