Bardstown Bourbon Co. Discovery Series #4

Sweet nose loaded with caramel covered fruits like peach and cherry. Some leather, old oak bookcase, and wood varnish reminds you its mostly 15+ years old. Dark chocolate lingers on the nose too. The blend of fruit and oak are married so well here. Pretty hot entry with dry oak, lots of cinnamon red hots, honey roasted peanuts, coffee, and leather. The sweetness comes after with cherry orange compote, dark brown sugar, and toffee. Good mouthfeel but could have a bit more richness for the age and proof. Finish is smooth as silk. Milk chocolate, coffee, and old oak are prominent. Good length but not exceptional. I sure loved the complex nose and strong flavors, but a lack of richness in the mouth and finish lacked a bit in the complexity department, kept this from being next level. These are nitpicks, however. This is a great whiskey. Maybe not worth the price though

My favorite of the night! Great opened up with a few drops of water. #WhiskiesOfTheWorld #WOWThemAtHome

Dry, balanced with a Nice spicy kick at the finish.
