Bulleit 10 Year Bourbon

Nose: apple pie. Vanilla. Brown sugar. Maybe Clove? Rich. Smooth. Spicyyyyyy. Like spicy Christmas desserts. Better than the regular bulleit. But still not my favorite.

Yum

Nice amber bourbon. Nose is fantastic: caramel, mint, rye, citrus. Palate disappoints slightly: gentle, butterscotch, cinnamon, musk like an autumn forest. Finish: long, oaky, raisins, but not overly sweet like some bourbon. Really solid bourbon without breaking the mould.

Medium body. Clove, cinnamon spice, some vanilla, orange. At $39. A bottle in our state (Virginia) controlled stores, worth he price. It's a 10yo! More spice than Russell Reserve 10 and Eagle Rare. For me Russell Reserve 10 yo is the best value. A good pour and a lower price point and always available. Bulleit is a great buy when you want the extra spice.
