Old Forester 1924

Nose oak, butterscotch, baking spice. Palate caramel, some oak, more baking spice and a little cinnamon. Finish- more of same. Not too long but not short either. Really nice pour.

The nose is a burst of floral rye, perfectly matched by charred oak that quickly gives way vanilla and brown sugar. It is absolutely intoxicating and surprisingly offers no burn no matter much you take it in. The palate is light and oily and immediately fills the mouth with an intense burst of black pepper. It is immediately chewy and oaky vanilla fills the corner of the mouth. This is rich, full and intense, and while not exactly complex, it is those factors that make this stunning. Everything is perfectly balanced and addicting. The finish is medium long and rich, with chewy pepperiness and oak lingering. As soon as you take a sip, you're already looking forward to the next. This is remarkable, but held back a bit by the finish that ends too soon.

Really enjoyed this my friend shared pour with me. I got a very unique flavor profile. Heavy caramel notes on the finish but a pleasant candy type taste almost like cake or bubble gum taste initially along with traditional oak and leather bourbon notes
