Rebel Yell Kentucky Straight Bourbon (Discontinued)

Medium pale amber in the glass, a little lighter in color than most bourbons. Thin legs on the side of the glass. Nose: alcohol, vanilla, peaches, and something vaguely sour that I cannot place. Sweet corn, too. Palate: sweet and lightly nutty. Hotter than one would expect at 40% ABV. Sweetness carries through mid-palate, along with a little wood. Finish: medium length, hot and slightly bitter. Conclusion: drinkable, but not great. Perhaps a good mixer or base for an old fashioned. A “C” player. 3 stars owing to its affordability.
