Baker's Small Batch Bourbon

Very good bourbon for the price.

Nose orange, leather, cinnamon, vanilla. Pallet oak, pepper, vanilla, honey,

Not as good as the others I've had lately 😏

Found this one at a Walmart on clearance for $32. Better than the regular $55 I've seen when not on sale/clearanced. Bought two bottles just based on the cost alone. I'm not a huge Beam fan but I've only had a few examples and none of the "higher end" ones. The nose on this is sweet sugary, baked sugar cookies, vanilla, honey? Not what I expected from a Beam. I was expecting more of a Knob Creek smell. My first sip is exactly that, Knob Creek but not as fiery as the 120 proof they offer. I'm really liking this and from the reviews left on Distiller I was afraid this was going to be really hot. Maybe I got a good one but this isn't hot at all, pretty smooth actually. One small cube and this really opens up the sweetness. I'd like to try this side by side with a Booker's and Knob Creek and see if I get the same tasting notes. Overall I like this and for the price I paid i'd buy it again but the Baker's line has changed and the small batch expression is no longer available. It was rebranded as single barrel and the bottle shape changed. For $35 I really like this but for $55 I wouldn't purchase again. 4/21/21 Just found this at my local Walmart for their clearance again this year. This time it was $21 dollars a bottle!! I bought a few!! Score!!
