Ezra Brooks 99 Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon

Tasted blind at whiskey night with friends. Came across as fruity, apple. Some generic bourbon notes. Slightly above average.

Very good flavor, sweet carmel taste to me. Not enough burn for my liking though

Would make a decent Manhattan

Smoother than I expected for a rye. The spice is light. Paired with a milk chocolate caramel was nice.

Picked this up at Lux Row, which by the way, is a stunning property. Excellent tour and tasting experiences, well stocked, modern gift shop and a beautiful outdoor setting. The Rickhouse is a must see, and there are Peacocks roaming wild on the property! As has become a bit of a tradition, I decided to take this bottle to share on our camping trip to Clifty Falls State Park in Madison, IN. Pretty strong alcohol on the nose, but also picked up a bit of sweetness. Nice vanilla note on the palate, along with some spice. Finish is medium length and tingly. Also get some cocoa here. Pretty solid pour.
