Great Jones Straight Bourbon

In a Boulevardier at Darby of Scotch Plains w/ Krista & James

Very approachable bourbon. Had it at a bourbon fest and was one of my favs.

43%, four years old Tasted in a glencairn cairn, neat Rested 12 minutes Color: light amber Nose: caramel, cherries, vanilla, honey-brown sugar, ethanol Palate: mmmm, syrupy and thick, honey right from the start, then vanilla and caramel, hint of white pepper, not as sweet as the nose suggests Finish: nice, moderate with oak and tannins, some residual vanilla and caramel Nice! Not the most complex, but an easy sipper, and props for keeping the price appropriate, unlike some other new distilleries (nods at peerless) T8ke scale: 6, very good, a step above

Not bad Batch 001 Bottle 20527 Tasted at 54
