Isaac Bowman Straight Bourbon Finished in Port Barrels

Lots of vanilla on the nose here. Palate is sweet, with notes of strawberry and cherry. Subdued finish, with darker, woodier notes.

The dude at the liquor store was right: it's really good. It's delicious, truly. I just wish it didn't have the "pioneer spirit" going there. I didn't notice that before I bought it. How many native people did Isaac Bowman kill? What did he think about the native people here on this land? Was he just another settler taking the homes of native people?
