Old Taylor Straight Bourbon

1.75L from VA ABC. Time to check out the bottom tier of the BT lineup. Neat in Glencairn. Nose is actually pleasant, with none of the cardboard, dry hay, or ethanol I was reluctantly expecting at this price point in a giant plastic bottle. Mild apple peel, hints of baking spice, black pepper, maybe some oak poking through. Taste is also mild, with butterscotch and pepper, more sweet than bitter, a bit oily. Finish does bring some mild bitterness, but remains buttery. Decent enough, I am happy to say. The plastic jug belies the whisky within. 7/16/20

Not as good as EHTSB ‘96

I really liked this one. A much more mellowed bourbon, with very sweet toffee notes, vanilla and flan caramel (creme caramel). Delicious. Same sweet notes with some red fruits too. It is like any other bourbon but a little bit refined, with more bite. Sorry for the simple review. 80 over 100. Slainte!

Sweet, light, a little spice. With some water, vanilla and caramel ice cream Simple, easy sipper for a low, low price. $19.00 for 1.75 L. It's a keeper for me
