Isaac Bowman Straight Bourbon Finished in Port Barrels

Starts off the nose with an ugly funk that you pull your nose away from. The taste at first you think is fruity and calm and then the funk returns in a mad dash to try and kill you. Not worth the 40 dollars to even keep it in the collection.

The name delivers, the port barrel finish gives this a nice brown fruit flavor at the beginning, every so slightly sweet, then the wood shines through in the middle. Long boozy finish, maybe too ethanol-forward. Very warming.

Good move with the Port barrels Isaac. Tru Pioneer Spirit!

Heavy, sweet port nose. Rough, abrasive after taste.
