Parker's Heritage Barrel Finished in Orange Curaçao Barrels

Bracing myself for the blast of orange on the nose, but it's very mild. Noticeable, but mild. On the palate, it's there as well, but not overpowering. Smooth with leather. The citrus is there, but more like bitter zest, not like orange juice. Good change of pace. 10/20/18 More orange on the nose this time. A musty note on the palate. Citrus zest. Smooth for the proof. Good change of pace. 11/30/18

this is fantastic bourbon. hot but not complete fire, easy drinking but not dis interesting. something I'd love to have on my shelf, but at $90 it's not significantly enough better than bourbons at roughly half the price for me to justify buying a bottle.

This is a unique tasting, which I truly appreciate. Definitely has orange bitter taste but it mixes surprisingly well with oak and caramel. I had low expectations going into this one and was pleasantly surprised. Deserves more than 4 stars but not quite 5.
