Davidson Reserve Small Batch Tennessee Bourbon

Dark golden in color, lots of legs show up quickly, yet a nice sheet remains on the glass. The first nose reveals that it is a little rough around the edges... there's a wonderful malty quality to it, and lots of the right stuff is there. The finish shows up like the nose. Although tasty, It's unfinished. A nice oaky/ milk chocolate sweetness comes through mid-palate, then yields to a dry, almost bitter , barrel dominated finish. They're onto something, and after another 20 years of practice, they're going to have this Tennessee whiskey thing dialed in!

Tastes young and very grainy, despite the at least 4 year age statement

Smoky oak. Strong, harsh kick.
