1792 Single Barrel Bourbon

Nose is complex... starts with heavy apple, moving to other fruit notes before finishing with cinnamon, nutmeg, and big time brown sugar notes. I wish the complexity carried over to the palate. Clove/grassy notes give way to a slight apple taste. The finish is satisfyingly long, with a larger than expected bite on the front end for a sub-100 proof.

Rollercoaster of tastes with this one for me. Initial taste was heat, but quickly mellowed out to smooth and sweet/fruit, back to a bit of heat in the throat, then finished with vanilla. Fun to smell and drink on each sip.

A bit of pink bubble gum and tropical fruit on the nose, like banana esters. The rye hits a high notes on first taste then mellows out into your typical oak barrel flavours. Finish is long and balanced, full of clove, toffee and cinnamon.

The nose is nice and has a sweet charred oak smell. With hints of cherries. Taste: It hits hard with banana bread upfront followed by spice and vanilla. Then the burn hits a little and has a sweet heat that I wish stayed around. Once the heat is gone you are left with the banana bread again. It is smooth and has a good balance and medium-long finish. This is definitely a winner that I would like to keep on the shelf. Good price point and smooth bourbon.

Butterscotch with spice and heat! Very good!
