Barrell Whiskey American Vatted Malt November 20, 2019

Possibly best single malt I’ve had.

Nose - earthy, spicy, and herbal, tobacco and leather, some dry rye slices, some sweet dark toffee undertones Palette - thick and oily, leather and oil up front, spice and herbs, rich dark sugars at the back, some dried apricots and citrus peel, a bit of sweet brown sugar Finish - spicy and oily, lingers long, pretty solid heat

Not loving it. Off tasting, can’t describe it. Seems heavy on the oak.

Tastes much more like a scotch than bourbon. Smooth and good flavor, would never guess this taste to be a bourbon
