Reviewed February 5, 2023 (edited February 6, 2023)I've not been super impressed with this brand. Mostly too young of whisky for insane prices, but I was told this was special. Minimum 7-8 year 99% corn mash bill MGP finished in a second barrel. Nose - roasted coffee with dark chocolate over french vanilla icing. Just a lovely sweetness with some youthful corn coming through. Taste - There's this classic old carter profile that they seem to look for. It's almost vegetal tomato if that makes any sense. Actually, almost reminds me a bit of the chewy sprees once you get past the shell (not a fan). Roast coffee comes through here, but it's also got some bite and heat from the alcohol. A very nicely roasted character over the traditional younger MGP notes. Shocked that this is 99% corn, while I don't get much rye or anything like that, I don't always get that on younger MGP anyway. Overall, really nice step up from some of the past Old Carter batches, but I'm not about to drop 230 for my own bottle.230.0 USD per Bottle
