Still Austin The Musician Cask Strength

Great bourbon. Citrus, vanilla and oak on nose. Citrus, cherry, baking spices, char and nice spicy finish.

Flan, baking spices, a long slow heat, and vanilla, all alternating in domination as the taste goes on. Really vibing this, keen to try it rested or with a couple water drops. A little too much menthol follows the heat or I'd have this a mid-four stars.

Fruity spiciness. Great fall pour. Complex for a small group. Dry finish. I’m impressed.

Smell is sherry. Flavor is ozone, vanilla, and a touch of berry.

Had single barrel, from total wine, nutty, walnut, smooth,

It’s strong and sweet taste!

The nose settles with time. Very ethanol forward showing its young age despite the Texas heat supposedly hastening the aging process. Once it sets in the glass for 15-20 min, the nose improves with lots of vanilla, tannins and menthol coming through. There’s also a hint of lime peel on the nose as well. The palate shows the cask strength heat leading the way to a creamy mouth feel and the flavors of apple pie. Caramel, butter, apples, cinnamon and pie crust, salty/buttery goodness. The finish is long and satisfying for what starts on the nose as a young whisky. Leather tannins and burnt sugar finish.

Like toasted brown sugar & caramel with a delicious spicer finish, big fan! Bought a back-up right away!

Taste has a sweet yet tartness to it. Like a dark cherry pie which was aged in whiskey barrel. For the proof level it's an easy drinker for those that don't typically like the high proof juice.
