Bulleit Bourbon Barrel Strength

So I’ve been drinking this off and on usually when on sale but felt the need to review it on here. Nose: so upfront there’s a little bit of ethanol that kind of helps keep the fact that you’re sipping a 60%+ bourbon in mind. When pushing past that I get hints of almost orange pledge or peels with after hints of a sweeter scent maybe hints of honey ? Palate: so surprisingly there’s hardly any burn it’s more orange , rye spice and Caramel. The finish is nice and long but gentle nothing too too harsh for the proof but you’ll taste it on the exhale for a few breathes for sure. Overall I always usually take price into account with overall product because I rarely spend over $60 on a bottle unless I KNOW it’s worth it! This is a solid 86 given price account and flavor profile ! It’s affordable,packed full of flavor and always available! I prefer rare breed over this but not always and sometimes this hits the spot better!if never tried is solidly recommend !
