Corner Creek Bourbon

Tastes like light black licorice! NOT IMPRESSED!

Dry with lots of oak. Almost like a brandy or grappa in some ways. Not a favourite but definately different.

My friend found a bottle of this on a discount rack as its been de-listed in NC. I was not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. It had flavor, spice, and dimension, but not a great amount of depth. Not much oak or vanilla to speak of but no offputting flavors. Nice cinnamon notes which must indicate a higher rye mash bill. All the good news about this unavailable spirit fails to overcome the fact that I can get much better bottles for ~$30. While I appreciate the different flavors for an affordable price, Corner Creek suffers from the overloaded bourbon offerings in its price range that are far superior.

Underrated.
