Tasting Notes
"Big Gin's Bourbon Barreled appears a bit stuck between flavors from the barrel influence and its botanical recipe. The nose is slightly rubbery with some vanilla and mild spice peeking through. A pleasant blend of cocoa and peppermint open the palate that finishes with a nice creaminess accented by pepper and juniper."
