Eagle Rare 10 Year Bourbon

I enjoy this bourbon...spice, fruit, clove, wood all very prominent on the palette. Would drink this all the time, and at the modest price point I hope it lasts long enough that I can.

I recently heard a review by whiskey expert, Ralfy ("ralfystuff" on Youtube), and decided that I had to pick up a bottle. I wasn't disappointed by this reasonably priced gem ($28 for 750ml). On the nose: toffee, honey, leather, and cinnamon. On the pallet: light sweetness (not overly sweet) of candied apple. This is a smooth, easy drinking bourbon - perfect for introducing others to the world of bourbon.

There's no doubt this is a smooth and satisfying bourbon. The nose is soft with vanilla and dark cherry greeting you upon entry. There's a mild wood tone you really have to search for. Be patient. It's more identifiable if you add a drop of water but no drop is needed. In the mouth, full bodied, leaving no surface untouched. You get to savor it even after it's gone and that's a beautiful thing. There's almost no burn and the subtle warmth it does have hits in all the right places to accentuate the sweetness. This will be one I have on hand frequently. (FWF share #25) Buy #2 Opened: 12/8/18 Finished:
