Reviewed November 25, 2019 (edited January 28, 2020)Taste: 1.5 oz in glen cairn, neat Nose (4.0): Candy corn and brown sugar on the nose. There is some dark red apple as well. The nose certainly hides the high ethanol well without being overly sweet. Palate (4.25): Thick caramel, red apple almost like a taffy apple. I get some maple syrup with a nice smokiness in the background. The palate is full and rich. There is a slight bitterness on the final note that detracts a bit. Finish (4.0): honey and clove with a bit of cinnamon stick. There is some barrel spice and oak to round it out. The finish is rougher and more in your face. Overall: I enjoyed this one, and the name Country Ham really reflects it well. If you could put that initial whiff that you get when you walk into a Cracker Barrel restaurant into a whiskey it would be THIS bourbon. What struck me odd is that to me there isn't any signature peanut flavor. That's not a bad thing, but it is a bit of a departure from previous releases. -

Reviewed November 23, 2019 (edited December 14, 2019)Phenomenal yet slightly different offering from Booker’s. Very smooth, easy drinking, brown sugar and cinnamon bomb! Some usual oak and a bit of tobacco as well with a medium long finish. Neat (IMO) is the perfect way to sip this terrific bourbon. Cheers! -

Reviewed November 19, 2019 (edited February 14, 2020)Fruity, oaky goodness. This is my second time having Booker’s, and first time owning a bottle (can’t pass up $58 at costco!). The last one I had was way before I got into whiskey as deeply as I have now. First pour, watered down with a couple splashes. I get malts, oak wood, vanilla and ripe fruit. Longggg, rich finish - looking forward to working up to sipping this neat. Classic58.0 USD per Bottle
