Michter's US*1 Sour Mash Whiskey

Not picking up a whole lot here. Nose and palate are average, low proof, and standard with some subtle sweetness, caramel and oak. Finish has a slight tang or tart, but perhaps its just a placebo from the name “sour mash”. Not sure if dropping in already fermented mash from the prior batch moves the needle much on aromatics or taste.

As bouryes go, this is alright.

Sweet but not too. Really nice. Gentle burn balances the aweetness perfectly.

Sweet, caramel on the nose. Good mouth feel. Slight burn, but smooth

This has a nose with tons of oak. I also get a little nutmeg and black cherry as others have stated. Palate has some vanilla, oak, butterscotch. Mouthfeel is thin. Finish is astringent and a little dry. There is leather, sweet oak and honey spread over hostess white bread with a dash of pepper. The unblended American whiskey blows this away. Wish I would have went with another bottle of that one.
