Jefferson's 16 Year Presidential Select Twin Oak

Probably going to be a rare bottle some day. It is aged in Stitzel Weller Barrels, Which is the same distillery that produced bourbon for the Van Winkle Family.

Deep caramel and orchard fruit on the nose. Unique wood notes as well. On the palate, I first get rubber tires. It's like walking through a tire shop. Sweetness, and rye notes, a brief flash of spice that goes away. Short finish. There's a unique flavor that I can only describe as fragrant wood and petroleum products. So it's interesting. Will need to see how this changes over time. A few drops of water brings out caramel notes, and some astringent notes. 12/11/17 The rubber notes have waned but they're still there on the front end. More intense flavors on the front end that I remember. Still lots of wood. Mid palate is really good. But finish is short. 1/25/18
