Redwood Empire Pipe Dream Bourbon

Very sweet on the nose, making you expect vanilla and butterscotch. First taste is surprisingly smooth and slightly smokey, with some sweetness coming through. Really opens up with heat at the end. Long finish.

The nose made me expect a sweeter taste. The taste itself ended up presenting itself as almost smokey to me (which I’d otherwise like if I was drinking scotch or mezcal). Was willing to pay for the price I got it to try, but wouldn’t buy again at the normal price

Definitely a sweeter bourbon. Lots of corn, but a satisfying easy sipper. Drank with two ice cubes. Never heard of the distiller but the guy at the liquor store suggested it. A bit of bite at the very end.

Sweet slight cinnamon, rich butterscotch and a little fruit
