Little Book Chapter 3: The Road Home

Caramel nose Brown sugar, marshmallow Long hot finish

I'm in love

A generous sample from dthom as part of the "Whiskey transfer program". Dying to try this. I LOVED Volume 1 and am a big fan of the other Jim Beam lines so this is very exciting. Nose: Sweet dark sugars up front, orange peel, cedar, toasted almond, toasted coconut. Smells like everything I love about volume 1 with none of the things I don't. Flavor: Much milder than I thought at first. Dark caramelized sugars, toasted almond and coconut, creamy mouthfeel, dark toasted wood, honey, and more orange peel. Finish: Spicy and sweet, a lot like honey both mouthfeel and flavor, lingers for a long time with nutty woody notes. Wow is this delicious. Everything I like about the small batch Beam lines but turned up to 11 with the higher proof and extra aging. Not an everyday drinker as, much like the Booker's items, you really have to be in the right mood for something this strong and powerful but wow.
