Barrell Bourbon Batch 020

Nose is apple, cherry and pecan pies cooling in a charred sawmill overgrown by mint. Tongue delivers the promised flavors with a thick, oily mouthfeel and some bonus orange, cola and vanilla. Spicy sawdust, peanuts and a mildly medicinal spearmint linger on the finish. Not the most complex batch but its a tribute to Barrell there’s still plenty going on.

Cherry

Sweet flavors and long finish

Peanut butter cookie dough with a hint of sparemint on the palate. Rich, velvety, and supreme.

Aroma radiates of cookie dough and honey baked ham. Vanilla and toffee follow. On the palate is a lovely array of cookie dough ice cream, drizzled in vanilla icing with oak and Graham crackers on the finish. A wonderful tasting experience.

Cherries, vanilla, and oak on the nose. Orange peel and oaky mouthfeel that mellows with butterscotch on the back end for this pour. A hint of vanilla frosting with the wood on the finish.

The nose constantly changes; going from cherries and figs to vanilla and honey, a hint of molasses, then brown sugar and maple candies. On the palate, orange peel followed by nougat and caramel, vanilla ice cream. Finish has notes of whipped cream and cream soda. This batch is a gem.
