Old Fitzgerald Bottled in Bond 15 Year (Fall 2019)

Tasted blind. Kind of like Barterhouse but with a backbone. The oak that might otherwise be pleasant seems to be dominated by ethanol, which is hotter than 100 should be. Not bad, but nothing special either.

The color is a glowing amber, very caramel like, and coats the glass nicely in oil. The nose is gentle with caramel, brown sugar, custard and a slight floral note. The palate is rich and mouth coating while somewhat dry, filling the mouth with a wonderful creaminess that has hints of dark chocolate and cooked brown sugar, with caramel coming in at the end. The finish is medium long that keeps you savoring on the creaminess while a slight spiciness fades.

Unbelievable
