Broken Barrel Small Batch Bourbon (Previous Packaging Discontinued)

N: musty boiled peanuts. Lite and sweet. M: peanut. Lite and cool on the mouth. There is a lite sweetness to it that reminds me of a PB&J.

Light flavor little burn

Lil hot but not bad

I cannot believe how good this is. This is a great value. Not to say it tastes cheap. Quite the opposite, rather. For the price, it should not be this complex. It's got a cherry pallet but has a comparable spice level to a Knob Creek. It's 70% but not corny. It balances heat with a smooth body. Great value, one to keep at all times.

Decent, Smokey flavor. More heat than expected for 95 proof.

Straight alcohol came through a little too harsh, nose and palette. Otherwise would be a higher rating

The whiskey is sourced. So if you're a whiskey snob, that may turn you off. The sourced whiskey is only 1 year old before it is given to the finisher. Nose: fruit cocktail. Cherries from a cherry pie. Pallette: Lots of influence from the Oloroso staves. French apple pie. Finish: Long lasting. Port wine. Though it technically is a bourbon... This is a poor man's Redbreast 12 year. I really want to do a blind taste test between the two. This is a value whiskey. By value I don't mean cheaply made. I mean it is awesome for the price. You cannot tell that it's young.
