George Dickel 11 Year Bottled in Bond Tennessee Whisky (Fall 2008)

Considering the price point, it’s relatively complete and even complex. There’s peach, caramel, and charcoal on the nose, followed by sharp citrus and Rice Krispie Treats in the mouth. The mouthfeel is a little watery, and the finish doesn’t exactly last forever. But the QPR is quite high at $40.

Nose of pecan pie, vanilla and cinnamon with a pie crust undertones Palate of baked apples sprinkled with cinnamon sugar Finish is medium with a nice lingering finish of barrel spice and molasses Quite and enjoyable neat pour

A great whiskey! This one really grew on me as I worked through the bottle. Has a little bit of the Dickel mineral flavor, but plenty of other complexity and barrel character.

Loads of corn. Almost zero burn for the proof. Would like to have this in a cocktail.

The nose is subtle. On the pallette, I get nuts, fruits (a little cherry), and cinnamon. It's rich, but not oily. The finish is satisfying, where a little barrel oak shows up.
