Rabbit Hole Straight Bourbon Finished in PX Sherry Casks

This is in the sherry-finish division of my finished bourbon bracket. It was Rabbit Hole vs Wild Turkey Revival, winner to go against Joseph Magnus. In a blind taste test, Wild Turkey Revival won. As always... this is for science. This one was a lot closer than I thought. WT comes in around $140, and Rabbit Hole around $70. I’d love to say this bourbon was half the bourbon of WT, but that’s simply not true. WT basically ticked more boxes and was a smidge more complex. As for this guy... Nose smells of sugar and butter. Body has a genuinely good flavor. I get watermelon, cherries, and the same butter from the nose. The finish is a bit of a let down for me, taking a very bitter turn away from the body, trailing off with walnuts and raw wood. This bourbon is really interesting. Compared to WT it packs a value for the dollars. Compared to other finished bourbons (port finished, for instance), not so much. Am I to believe that finishing in sherry barrels costs 50% more than port? Rabbit Hole, I can tell you’re young boo. Overall, very tasty, I’m a fan, not my favorite, and I’ll probably buy another one at some point. Fair? Edit: WT Revival won out for the Sherry bracket, beating Joseph Magnus.

Absolutely delightful..I’ll add tasting notes fully shortly but don’t miss this joint. Picked it up in a whim and glad I did trust. You’ll be surprised

Sherry orange extremely smooth tastes of eh Taylor single barrel and blantons with that top of mouth oil and finish. Very good.
