Early Times Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon

I found the black plastic top brown forman version at a local bar. I didn't do a side by side but may be a little sweeter. I love them both. Best value bourbon I have tried.

The current version is Brown Forman distilled and Barton/Sazerac bottled is nothing to laugh at. This stuff is my favorite value whiskey. 100 proof, sweet carmel nose and taste with a little spice. Taste has a little heat when you first pop the bottle but mellows later. It's sweet carmel w a little spice and a spicy almost pineapple finish. I give this and extra 1/4 star because its only $20 dollar a liter. For anyone that doubts that the current juice is still the Brown forman look at the back. You will see DSP-KY-354, the same on the old brown formans and then bottled at KY-DSP-12 (barton Sazerac). Edit: Sazerac is a blue metal cap, Brown forman is a black plastic cap

Nose: butterscotch, vanilla Palate: light oily mouthfeel, citrus, vanilla Finish: Leather, not much oak
