Redwood Empire American Whiskey

Very sweet/sugary nose. Not much flavor, strong burn

Batch 1 bottled 11/9/17. I get caramel, leather and orange notes from the bourbon mixed with mint, dill and eucalyptus from the rye. Throw in a little chocolate and wine from the port barrels. It was a definite conversation piece in a zoom tasting. I don’t quite know what to make of it. It’s good, but it seems like all the flavors are not fully integrated.

Very smooth on ice. Great tasting and was a pleasant surprise.

Great nose - sweet, vanilla, and definitely get some apple. Palate is oily with a lack of flavor on the top but a rich finish with a little spice. Solid B in my book. Skeptical whether or not it’s worth the price.

Nothing exciting or wrong, brown sugar, honey, cherry, thin, not much of a finish. Very light oak.
