Old Forester Single Barrel Bourbon Barrel Strength

Color: deep deep carmel brown, looks amazing Nose: pear , cherry, bananna, hint of heat, just a bit of the cigar box wood, …awesome Taste neat : pow punch in the nose with the proof. Black oepper quick First taste tho is cherry cough syrup & licorish too intense neat fades very very slowly to a nice tobacco finish if youre patient Cube: still a bit too much, gets to just lots of wood mid-taste, mellows out a bit more over time, less intense but no new flavors. Enjoyable with the ice, but too much heat and cough syrup flavor without.

Martha's Vineyard Barrel Pick

She is a hot one!! The nose has immensely intense aromas of caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, sweet corn, and new leather. It also has an incredibly intense amount of peppery notes and rye spice. Further wafts bring out that oh so familiar masticated banana note as well as apricot. Very complex and oh so inviting. The palate is warm as this is a proofy pour, but the amount of flavor is immense. Black pepper, black tea, and leather mix with the caramel, vanilla, and brown sugar coating the mouth from the teeth to the throat. The finish is incredibly long and a salivation of the mouth occurs awaiting the next sip. This is very rare in my area appearing once every 3 or 4 years and always worth purchasing. Nose: 4.5/5 Taste: 4/5 Overall: 4.25/5 Repurchase: Yes Type: Special Occassion

Rich. Nearly perfect with an ice cube!
