Evan Williams Black Label

On the nose: Hints of toasted caramel and smoke On the palate: I get hints of toasted marshmallow and caramel, along with some smoked brown sugar. The finish: It’s got a nice, lasting burn. Caramel apple is the faint taste that was left in my mouth. Overall: Not bad. Maybe not as smooth as I would’ve liked it, but the flavor’s pretty decent!

Glass: Glencairn, rested 15 minutes. Color: Light amber. Nose: Vanilla and caramel. Some oak. Palate: More of the same. Finish: Short, no heat. Splash: No new flavors are revealed. Overall: 5/10 - Pretty basic. Inexpensive.

Just ok

Smooth, mellow, easy to sip. Not much body or character but a nice everyday bottle.
