Kentucky Vintage Small Batch Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 7, 2017 (edited December 3, 2018)I really enjoy most KBD juice and all iterations....except this one. It's drinkable, but there's something in the flavor profile that's off-putting to my taste buds and nose. Out of balance flavors. Feels hotter than 90 proof. Probably won't buy again. Will finish the bottle. -
Knob Creek 9 Year Single Barrel Reserve
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 7, 2017 (edited February 17, 2018)Delicious. Barrel select from my local store in Nashville TN. Geez, for $41 hard to beat. -
Henry McKenna 10 Year Bottled in Bond Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed October 10, 2016 (edited February 17, 2018)Coats the mouth with a luxurious oak and burnt caramel profile that lingers for a longish and lovely finish. Great value, too. Highly recommended. -
Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed July 14, 2016 (edited September 4, 2019)Yes. Maybe a fraction hotter/spicier than the 12. But I like that. It's still refined goodness. Caramel, vanilla, dates, rich oak and a bit of leather. Sweet, rich & savory, well balanced, nice med/long dry-ish finish. For around 30 bucks a bottle - what's not to like? EC Small Batch is super easy to drink. -
Old Grand-Dad Bonded Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed July 8, 2016 (edited February 17, 2018)Good stuff. Funky label. Looks young (light color), smells a little young - but tastes right on the friggin money. Spicey goodness. Great value! -
An interesting flavor profile. Sweetness on the nose, sweetness on the palette. Caramel, toffee creme brulee goodness with oak and just a wee bit of spice coming through. I wouldn't say super complex - but I would say freakin' delicious. This bourbon is one of those that the more I drink, the more I want it. It's flavors are addictive - and truly unique. There's something I can't even identify - almost a very slight sour that offsets the sweet - but in a very good, balanced way. Check it out!

Heaven in a bottle. Liquid gold. I can taste the vanilla, dark chocolate and spicy dark fruits & orange peel 2 days after my last sip. SO MUCH flavor in one tiny sip. Too spicy for ya? So, just add a little bit o' water - or pour over an ice sphere - and let the party start. If you don't like this whiskey - there's nothing I can do to help you. :-)
