Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year Bourbon (107 Proof)

Smooth and good but not “pappy” in terms of how much this was hyped

Def better than 12 yr Weller.

Biased review. Have never seen this bourbon ANYWHERE for sale. Got my hands on a bottle from a family member and the exclusivity may have clouded my judgement. On the nose, cherry, syrup,vanilla and oak. A rich aroma. On the palate, very spicy with an upfront bang of cayenne pepper with intermediate periods of pomegranate and cherry with a very woody flavor. The cayenne comes full circle in a spicy finish!
