1792 Full Proof Straight Bourbon

Neat*** Hot full mouth burn Honey-not much else because of heat With Limestone water*** (capful to 1.5 oz) Much better, still honey with some peanutty after taste. 3rd sip some bland apple. Pepper on middle sides of tongue, no tingle in front, very long honey-nut finish. Found it oily even with water on mouth feel. Finish is one of longest I’ve had honey and oak(not charred oak)

Nose of honey, vanilla, and pear. The honey definitely comes through on the taste with a little heat from the proof. Lingering orange peel and the honey continues on through as well.

Mad props to @jrexx7

Strong opening taste at first. Once palate settles notes of vanilla along a rich oil taste.

Honey and fruit notes with some heat from the high proof. Definitely a pour that can get your in the right mind set.

The nose erupts with praline, barrel spice, brown sugar, toffee, with a gentle twist of vanilla and dark fruits, all mingled with a strident alcohol presence. In the palate, there’s a more pronounced nuttiness, tobacco leaf, and loads of rye spice. The finish is brief, but punchy, with a highly effervescent ethanol charging its way off the tongue as the moderate mouthfeel dissolves almost instantly, leaving behind a punch of proof heat, more rye spice and tobacco leaf, and even a slight creaminess. Further sips found molasses, honey, clove, and some other faint woody notes. Ultimately, this whiskey will rise or fall in your estimation by how much enjoy the confluence of high rye and high proof. For those like myself who are slow, pensive sippers, the marriage does well, and may offer a more viable step down from the assertiveness of say, an older Elijah Craig Barrel Proof…albeit only a step.

Smooth sweet smell. Sweet taste with a little burn. I like the aftertaste. Carmel hints and a little vanilla to me. Will get this again.
