Reviewed October 13, 2024 (edited October 14, 2024)Liquor City Uncorked pick, "Gallenstein Selection #10" Barrel No. 6590889 61.25% abv; 122.5 proof Age - 10 years Open 2 months Nose - Caramel, dry oak, dry cinnamon, burnt marshmallow, clove, medicinal cherry, and medium ethanol. Palate - Tannic oak, brown sugar, baking spices, cocoa powder, and orange oil. Finish is medium with muted oak tannins, cinnamon, brown sugar, toasted vanilla, and light ethanol. This was disappointing, probably the worst Elijah Craig pick or barrel proof batch I've had. It is flat and muted across the board. No flavors stand out, not even the oak or ethanol punch you expect in a ECBP. If I didn't know the bourbon, you could fool me and tell me it was bottled-in-bond. That's how unremarkable and watery it tastes.84.98 USD per Bottle -

Reviewed October 10, 2024BWG Private Barrel #6902174. 9 years old, 94 proof. On the nose: light sweet fruit, honey, and oak. Occasional floral note wisps. Some vanilla is present too. The palate is oak, cherry, and honey. Sometimes comes across as medicinal. The finish is a medicinal oak flavor that lingers, but isnt strong or cloying. This private pick certainly exceeds that of the standard self offering.37.0 USD per Bottle
