Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Small Batch Bottled in Bond Bourbon

Nose: sweet oak, caramel, cherry pie Taste: much of the same plus same plus loads of vanilla. Nice mouthfeel Finish: medium, some rye spice shows up, more cherry vanilla A classic bourbon that nails many of the sweet notes I look for. Not overly complex but a delight to sip

Nose: oak and caramel Taste: have you ever liked something? I like this

Nose is toasted oak, vanilla, rye, and a tinge of honey. Oily with fast running, spindles for legs. Palate introduces toffee, the finish is extradonairy with a lingering effect that almost outstays its welcome, the note being highly spiced rye. Now that I’ve seen it mentioned, I do get Red Hots in the finish.
