Booker's Bourbon Batch 2019-02 "Shiny Barrel Batch"

Great night drink. The spice is delayed at the end but not too strong. Great sweet taste.

Awesome Bourbon. Baked Caramel with vanilla on the nose and an apple pie with the same baked Caramel taste. Long toasted barrel finsh.

Bright copper color. Actually a really nice color. Aroma is of straight oak, maybe a note of cedar. The more I smell it, it's like when you use a chain saw and there is that cut wood with the slightest burned wood Aroma. As it opens a wave of sweetness and vanilla is just below the surface. Flavor, more sweetness than the Aroma hints, and this quickly gives way to warming spice and some menthol notes. Really long finish which is fantastic. Several drops of water bring out milk chocolate and this mixed with the spices makes me think of Mexican Chocolate.

A slight sweet aroma to begin and maturing to some freshly polished leather. Big, bold palate with a long finish. The spice is constant throughout, but never over-powering.
