Parker's Heritage Heavy Char Bourbon 10 Year

This is my first experience with a Parker product and a friend is sharing a taste of two, this being my favorite. The heavy char really brings out the barrel qualities without over-oaking. This stuff could be dangerous if not respected. The alcohol is barely noticeable on the nose or palate. I use white oak flooring cut offs when I smoke meat. Blend that smokey fragrance with that of the rick house angel share and that's the nose I get. The caramel-vanilla is rich and the smokiness just right. There's cherries jubilee as well. The nose on this one is perfection. So I guess I should taste it. Burnt brown sugar leads the way, like the top of creme brulee. There's a nuttiness and some dark cherries. This all leads to sweet oak finish.

Incredibly rich, oak, solid

Can’t wait to revisit this one

Heavy char is apparent reminds me of the smoke that scotch has. Not my favorite style but good for what it is.

Loads up the mouth. Thick and wood spicy

I’ll be dreaming of this one until I get to taste again. One of my dream bottles to find and own.

Love this!! Good finding this place @Zslug
