NBC Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey (District Splits)

The nose starts with charred oak, citrus, and floral rye as vanilla and brown sugar quickly arrive. Things gradually intensify and meld together to become very inviting and just what you want from a bourbon. The palate is rich and just somewhat chewy, with black pepper and baking spices in the corners of the mouth with charred oak and vanilla coating everything else. This is very creamy and smooth, with its simplicity being its strength. Its spicy and creamy, and for this, that is all this needs to be absolutely wonderful. The finish is medium and leaves behind a spiciness that keeps the mouth tingling a little bit as a chewy creaminess takes its time fading while remaining extremely enjoyable till the very end.
