Ezra Brooks 99 Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon

It’s ok. I definitely get peanuts. Not enough baking spice for me (Almost none). I like wild turkey 101 better and it’s a little cheaper. Would get this over Old Forester signature though.

Initial nose gives a hint of hay and farm along with boiled peanuts and field corn. Upon first contact with my lips and tongue hits like a SEC linebacker, but fades into a smooth Big-12 wideout. Leather, slight smoke and earth. Baking spice from the rye. Well balanced whiskey - especially for under $25

Nose: sweet oak, vanilla, caramel and a hint of peanuts. Taste: deep caramel, orange zest and chocolate. Finish: caramel upfront that quickly transitions into a nice chocolate with a bit of spice and peanuts that linger on the backend.

90 proof.

This is solid, and for $25 is a steal. Definitely a ton of peanuts and caramel. Also some butter/caramel popcorn. Really a solid whisky.
