*Will come back to this one and try again. Single Barrel (Barrel Strength) store pick: Cox & Evergreen (Louisville) 9 years, bottled Sept. 2018 (OESV), 126 proof Nose: surprisingly weak nose - only ethanol, cream, maybe raisin (more water opened up oak, honey, citrus) Palate: cinnamon, slight citrus, heavy mouthfeel Finish: not terribly long considering the proof. And with a few drops of water the burn was nearly immediate but disappeared quickly. Seemed to fair better after 10 minutes in the glass.

Magnum’s 2015 OBSF 12 year 58% ABV. The nose is a mixture of wood, vanilla, peanuts and corn. Thick, oily and reasonably sweet with a healthy burn. A little backend bitterness, but not off putting. A drop of water releases fruity aromas and flavor.
