Black Saddle Bourbon 12 Year

On the nose, caramel, orange and cream. Very sweet and inviting. On the tongue, tangy, keeping with the orange on the nose. Floral, leafy (maybe tea leaves). A little smoky, but not as woody as I would expect from a 12 year. A little thin on the finish. Generally pleasant, but not my favorite.

Cherry nose Starts bitter oak & honey Finishes cherry & pistachio

For a 12 year it’s a great price and an OK taste

Nose: char, smoke, faint vanilla Mouth: lots of pepper, slight all spice, smoke, leather, hint of sweet vanilla, harsh sandpaper etoh background Finish: long with pepper, harsh not smooth. Would not buy again. Disappointed for a 12yr.
