Old Bardstown Estate Bourbon 101 Proof

Exceptional for the price. It does have that upfront sweetness and a smooth finish. This is on big ice tasting. 👍🏻👍🏻

Very "hot" to the taste. A wheaty sweetness follows, not too cloying, Has a honey-like coating on the roof of the mouth, with a hot cinnamon aftertaste. Goes down hotter than expected. Sweet, but not too sweet. Marvelous complex aftertaste, but can't dodge that fiery heat. Tasty!

First time review on this one. Enjoying neat. Nose - spicy spicy spicy at first but once it settles you can pick up some goodies. Think caramel and oranges with some brown sugar and honey. Very unique nose once past the initial spice. Taste - good mix here of sweet and fruity start and finishes with a long salty treat. I get more oranges on the palate, some chocolates and honey. This transitions into a nice long lasting finish with some light burn, oak, and salty and bitter very ending. Overall - I like this one. The nose is spectacular, the taste is well rounded, this is a good cheap bourbon that’s easy to sip. Willet did a good job on this easy going bourbon.

Super smooth. Great flavor.

I’m getting a handful of nuts on the nose and some caramel on the taste. Not overly my thing.
