Eagle Rare 17 Year Bourbon (Fall 2014)

Incredibly smooth almost 0 burn. Upfront it seems almost like a normal bourbon. Middle palate is where the flavor develops. A great deal of aromatic flavors. After I swallow the taste lingers for a very long time complex caramels toffee’s and a hint of plum

Was fortunate enough to get 3 oz for 49.65 Euros, a relative steal compared to what it would cost PER OUNCE in the US by the bottle. With that said I personally would not pay the 900.00 secondary pricing for a ER 17 The nose is refined caramel & vanilla , nothing really jumps out The palate is oak The finish i am not loving nor hatin Not really complex enough for me I still give it a 4 out of appreciation for it being 17 year age stated BTAC and the privilege to drink it. I however prefer the other 4 BTAC bottles generically irrespective of year & luckily the WLW, GTS & THH are not so hard to come by one way or another, and i would rate each of the other BTAC's all higher Cheers!!!

As good as bourbon gets

Sweet. Brown sugar. Toasted marshmallow. A fine bourbon. To be honest, I just tried a sip of a friends after I had finished too many Scotches. Probably not fair to judge a fine whiskey like this when I’m drunk. So take this for what it is.
