Pinhook Bourbon Country

Hazelnut? Definitely something nutty!

My favorite $36 bottle

I will start off by saying I was pretty impressed with this one! Much lighter in color than a traditional bourbon but I don’t feel like it tasted young. The nose and front end of the palate were sweet and kind of reminded me of a scotch but they quickly changed mid palate to give way to oak, vanilla, and maybe some cherries but definitely fruity. I thought the finish was leaving some to be desired but after a few sips it started lasting longer and was very pleasant. Great bottle at this price point and makes me eager to try their other expressions. I have to say the marketing is genius as well but that doesn’t affect my rating. That being said, will probably try to grab the collection from now on though!
