Michter's US*1 American Whiskey

Glass: Glencairn, rested 15 minutes. Color: Medium amber. Nose: Apricot and raisins with a hint of marshmallow. Palate: Cloves and a bit of baking spice. Finish: Medium length with mild heat. Splash: No new flavors are revealed. Overall: 6/10 - This could be great with a bit more complexity and a longer finish. The nose is fantastic but doesn’t carry forward.

A bit oily. Not ultra impressed with its coompleexity. Just seemed sloghtly lackking.

This is just so simple to drink. Very simple but enjoyable. On the nose I get a little oak, simple syrup and elmer's glue. Palate is very simple. Carmel, vanilla and oak. Butterscotch and cream soda make an appearance. Finish is pleasant. There is a little oak again and leather. Very enjoyable finish although it's not lengthy. This is flawless.

nose - classic bourbon on the sniff; strong vanilla and caramels, with a more subtle oak than a bourbon palette - follows through nicely, and then some. The vanilla and caramels are strong and smooth, effects from the used-white oak barrels this is aged in. This is a “smoothed out” bourbon experinece, very pleasing
