Barrell Bourbon Batch 032

Another sure fire winner from the folks at Barrell. This expression has a definite chewiness with a round and tobacco leaf like character. Slightly fruity with elements of stewed prune, apricot and baked pear. All of this is tied together with a pecan pie flavor profile. Even at full proof, this is one smooth bourbon. add a gentle splash of branch water and it opens up into a very easy going and elegant spirit. At once sweet, it also has the self assuredness of an seasoned statesman. We look forward to Batch 33!

Nose: a spring meadow covered in fallen wood from winter. Some apple and young strawberries Taste: An amazing fresh baked cinnamon buttered cookie. So creamy and full of flavor. A bit of spiced apple and tobacco on the back end. Finish: nice and long leaving the lingering apple spice and nice oily coated mouth. Really enjoyed this one. My highest rated whiskey so far.
